No operating nuclear reactor in France is up to the required safety standard

Greenpeace France 25th March 2021, Measures to strengthen the French nuclear fleet, ten years after the
Fukushima disaster. On the basis of the available data and information
transmitted by the Nuclear Safety Authority (ASN), Greenpeace France
analyzed, with the support of the NegaWatt Institute, the reality of the
measures implemented to put the French nuclear fleet to post Fukushima
standards.

The finding is clear: no operating reactor is up to standard.
Ten years after the disaster, out of 23 structuring measures identified,
only 12 have been implemented throughout the park. Worse, at the current
rate planned, it would take until 2039 for post Fukushima standards to be
finally met on all French reactors.
