According to a report, the taoiseach and the leader of the green party visited Paris on Friday to make an electricity deal that will serve 450,000 homes. Reportedly, the electricity sector in France is dominated by its nuclear power which accounted for 71.7% of total production. It has gradually been viewed as the elephant in the room.
According to the report, Ireland already buys nuclear powered electricity from the uk. Nuclear powered electricity has been marketed as net zero and renewable because it uses rods that result in the massive fumes being contained, but according to a report, nuclear energy is neither clean nor green. The rods are very contaminated when spent and remain radioactive for decades.
Ireland and others market nuclear powered electricity as renewable, green or net zero, such as panda home energy.
