The situation may be analogous in Sweden. Building nuclear reactors was a huge part of the right-wing parties campaign. They even promised to start construction 100 days after they won the election. Unsurprisingly that promise fell through. No private companies have been willing to invest in nuclear and, thankfully, the government has not yet decided to plow hundreds of billions of taxpayer money into new reactors. Imo it's all culture war populism. Renewable energy and saving the planet is for little girls, nuclear power and driving fossil fuel cars is for real men or something.
