In 2021, the Grohnde nuclear power plant in Lower Saxony on the Weser River was shut down. Now, immediately next to it, the Emmerthal energy cluster is growing with three very large battery storage systems, ground-mounted photovoltaic systems, and a new substation for several 380-kilovolt high-voltage lines.



The French are sourcing more uranium processing from Russia then any other place. And while they do attempt to reduce that, the processing in the EU fell even more between 2023 and 2024 according to the data you linked (thanks), which clearly shows there is insufficient local capacity to replace the large Russian dependency.
Oh and you are right it is the US and Canada. My bad, but it doesn’t change the fact that it would be just another foreign dependency partially in a country that is weaponizing such dependencies.
