Same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?
Same procedure as every year, James.
Not unusual anymore.
I was not expecting a Dinner for One reference! On a French story nonetheless!
It’s a german classic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Exactly, not a French one!
Unusual? Hasn’t that happened annually fir a few years now? I’d argue that this is the new usual
It’s been the case for years, and the reason why nuclear cannot be the only energy energy source, especially during summer. Hot rivers cannot cool down a nuclear reactor.
Hot rivers cannot cool down a nuclear reactor.
The reactor(s) don’t care if the water is 20c or 30c so they don’t shut down the plant(s) because the river is too hot to cool them. They shut them down because the output water becomes so hot that it kills flora and fauna.
Yumm! No need to dine in Restaurants anymore! Sous-vide nine eyed fish straight out of river Seine!
That’s bullshit. Hot rivers can cool down reactors quite well (you just don’t want even hotter rivers for different environmental reasons) and so can closed cooling loops.
The actual reason against nuclear is that it’s economical insanity, always has been and always will. Everything else is just smoke and mirrors. Stories about imaginary reasons against nuclear out there are actually a helpful tool for the pro-nuclear side. They have something to easily debunk while also keeping the discussion away from the only thing that actually matters: the ridiculous costs.
Who could expect its thermal exaust port would be a weakness?
“Unusual”—now that’s a keen observation.
