Can you give more details? 

Here in italy, nuclear plants  were forbidden by a referendum. 
On italian territory there are just small research reactors. 

France that is one of the biggest producer of electricity by 
means of nuclear reactors had a long series of problems with one 
of their biggest Phoenix (Marc?). That makes me doubt Europe has 
serial made nuclear plans 

I doubt the nuclear production of electricity here (Europe) is 
more than 20%. Anyway I can be terribly wrong. 

I'm just interested in your font of info. 

TIA
