Nuclear. One billion euros for the "nuclear of the future". At his press conference on investments for the future, Nicolas Sarkozy announced the release of funds, notably to "strengthen research in the field of nuclear safety" and to develop nuclear 4th generation.
"France has a considerable lead" in the field of security. That's why she lost "tenders" abroad, according to the head of state. "Our plants are more expensive because safer," he sold.
"There are no alternatives to nuclear power today," said the president. We must therefore develop nuclear power and renewable energies "to" be at the rendezvous of 2020: 23% renewable energy "
"France does not need to skip sectors, it develops all sectors," he still defended.
1,3 billion euros will be devoted to renewable energy, he said. In addition, "twelve billion were invested for offshore wind turbines", that is to say "wind turbines in the ocean," he said. [Actually, it's more like ten billion, read over here]
But, he said, "one of the most promising energies for the future is energy saving".
