Energía nuclear: primero los franceses, ahora los ingleses

Ignoro, pero supongo que sí, si los asesores de Rajoy y Zapatero leen inglés. Lo digo porque sería muy bueno para todos que en Ferraz y Génova leyesen esto:

No limits for new nuclear power stations

A new generation of nuclear power stations will be encouraged to supply unlimited amounts of electricity to the national grid, The Times has learnt.

The Cabinet will give the go-ahead for the new building programme today and John Hutton, the Business Secretary, will announce the decision on Thursday.

He will pave the way for the nuclear industry to play a much bigger part in meeting Britain’s energy needs by making plain that there will be no limit on the amount of electricity it can supply to the grid.

At present nuclear power accounts for 20 per cent of energy supplies.

The price that the Government will make the nuclear power operators pay to supply unlimited electricity is that they will have to meet the costs of decommissioning power stations and of managing and disposing of waste. Legislation will be promised by Mr Hutton to safeguard the taxpayer from such costs, although critics will maintain that it will merely result in higher electricity bills.

De forma muy detenida aquí:

Gordon Brown and other ministers have already suggested backing new nuclear power on environmental and energy security grounds. Mr Brown told The Observer that a decision on future energy supplies was “a fundamental precondition of preparing Britain for the new world”.
