The amount of debt is not directly correlated to the health of a company: most companies have debts, and building nuclear reactors is very capital intensive. EDF net income for 2023 is 10B €, while for H1 2024 is 7B €. From 2007 to 2024 always had a positive net worth except for 2022. France is a net-exporter, with cheap, reliable and low emission electricity. Germany is almost the opposite of that.

So it had debt. How will they finance the rebuilding?

What I don't understand is France: they have a controlled energy price but their nuclear provider has a lot of debt.

And they need to start rebuilding new.ones.

So was it smart in France? Besides the obvious advantage regarding CO2

Is that a lot or very little?

In any case, nuclear is a technology of the XX Century. The future is wind and solar.

Would you be able to store a few kg (after decades) somewhere in your flat/house?

I would say yes easily.

Or the long term ecological damage of solar panels.

"create solar panels is still nowhere near that of traditional energy facilities, and it is quite small when compared to oil drilling, fracking or coal mining"

Did you post it to indicate that solar is bad or that it is also not 100% perfect?
