Seems that you are using old information when most of the French nuclear reactors had to go through an emergency maintenance... But now we are in 2025 and France in the middle of the winter is massively exporting electricity to Europe. (https://www.rte-france.com/eco2mix/la-production-delectricite-par-filiere#). France we 30% less population is producing about 10% more electricity than Germany... (https://energy-charts.info/charts/power/chart.htm?l=en&c=DE&interval=month). Germany is producing less and less electricity every year and they are paying dearly their no nuclear policy.

Until 100% of the electricity is generated through zero CO2 power plant, all of this is going to be marking BS. All the electricity used by Bitcoin can be used for more useful things, and renewable capacity build for Bitcoin can be used to displace coal plant instead of heating GPU.

No EU countries don't have empty shell issue. Btw it seems that you lack basic knowledge of supply chain organization. It's not because the producer is 25km from you that it doesn't have to drive hundreds of km before reaching your local shop... If there were food shortage in France it will be all over the news, and in my country I have not seen a single empty shelf since April 2020...

Seems that you are leaving in a different reality, and all you post are a proof of that. Be an happy Brexiter, but let the rest of the world ignore UK. Btw read here and have a look at the better deal the marvelous UK has negotiated as of today: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-47... and a fair analysis of the only one that differ from EU: https://fullfact.org/economy/j...

Seems that you have no idea what you are talking about... In 2018, France exported 86.3 TWh and imported 26.1TWh, making one of the largest net exporter of electricity on the planet. That year France was a net importer for 17 days and a next exporter for 348 days. In 2019 France was a net exporter of 56.6TWh. In comparison in 2018 Switzerland was a net exporter of 1.6TWh... (export 32.6TWh, import 32TWh).
