> As far as I'm aware, Russia is also an important source for nuclear fuel. I couldn't find a source on where Germany got its fuel, but did find that Canada, Kazakhstan, and Australia are also nuclear fuel producers, so at the least they had options. But supposing they did get their fuel from Russia - nuclear fuel [1] costs $1.5 per MWh [2], while natural gas (the cheapest fossil fuel) costs $13.2 per MWh. So Russia gets ~TEN TIMES more money per MWh if selling gas vs. nuclear fuel. > find sympathy Let me know how much effect sympathy has compared to diverting capital into Russia.
