Words of great wisdom – number 94, this time from Markus Krebber, Chief Executive of RWE.
In a recent statement he noted, “I would have a big question mark whether building new nuclear power stations is really a good strategy, because if you look at the cost overruns and the delays, I think purely a renewables-based energy system – including the necessary storage – is probably, in most regions, already today cheaper than new nuclear.” Quite so.
