Nuclear: the bill for EDF’s future EPR2 reactors is already skyrocketing


EDF has significantly increased the cost of its program to build six new
EPR2 nuclear reactors, the newspaper Les Echos reported on Monday, citing
new estimates from the company. According to Les Echos, EDF now
estimates the cost of its program to build six new EPR2 nuclear reactors at
67.4 billion euros, compared to 51.7 billion euros in an estimate made
public at the start of 2022, an amount expected to be subject to regular
updates. That’s a jump of 30%.
