Indeed. Currently I'm all for nuclear energy! At least when it's produced by modern safe plants that are run by intelligent people.
I agree too (20 years of efficient govermental communication maybe?) but it won't be enough, and won't work unless other major changes are made.

This summer during the heat wave in Europe, France suffered a lack of electricity. Why? Because the nuclear plants cooling systems get their water from rivers... and the rivers were too warm to cool the plants properly. So for security reasons plants had to be run under their full capacity.
