Nicolas Sarkozy makes €1bn commitment to nuclear power
Nicolas Sarkozy has announced that France will invest €1bn in developing future nuclear power, saying 'There is no alternative to nuclear energy today'. Meanwhile Germany has drawn up plans to shut all its nuclear stations by 2022 and will instead concentrate on developing renewable energy sources. Switzerland has also decided not to replace its five existing nuclear reactors, which supply around 40% of its energy, when they reach the end of their working life.
