核能,这个拥有超高能量密度的能源,由于安全需求高、事故后果严重等因素,在大多数国家的能源结构中不过是一道配菜。然而,位于欧洲西部的法国却把核电当主食连续吃了几十年,核电在电力供应中的占比超过七成,并成为世界最大的电力出口国。在全球核电比重呈下降趋势的当下,核电在法国的地位为何在核事故后高涨的反核浪潮中依然坚挺?久居法国的作者对此进行了一番探究。 Nuclear energy, an energy source with ultra-high energy density, is a side dish in most countries’ energy mix due to high security needs and serious consequences of accidents. However, in western Europe, France has been eating nuclear staples for decades. Nuclear power accounts for more than 70% of the electricity supply and has become the world’s largest electricity exporter. At a time when the proportion of nuclear power in the world is on the decline, why is the position of nuclear power in France still strong after the nuclear accident that has risen since the nuclear accident? The French-based author explored this issue.
