Komissio: Valtiolta tukea ydinvoimalle

The European Commission is set to draft new guidelines, which would allow the direct use of taxpayers’ money to support new nuclear power plants. Under the proposal, the Commission was planning to allow state subsidies for the construction and operation of nuclear power plants, diverting investments away from renewables. This news was welcomed by UK, France and Poland. However, the news was rebuffed by anti-nuclear Germany, which decided to completely phase out nuclear. [emp]
