Energie : face “au risque” lié au nucléaire, Edouard Philippe juge les renouvelables utiles
Les énergies renouvelables doivent être développées pour garantir la sécurité d'approvisionnement en France, a indiqué le candidat Horizons à l’élection présidentielle.
Edouard Philippe, speaking at the POLITICO Competitiveness Summit on Tuesday, reiterated his support for nuclear power in electricity generation. He emphasized the need to "defend" and "promote" this technology, while acknowledging that the "risk associated with its operation" is "real." Regarding atomic energy, Philippe stated that the "compass" for the Horizons candidate in the presidential election remains "safety."
If, for safety reasons, nuclear power plant production in France had to be halted, Edouard Philippe stressed that other technologies must step in and produce electricity, mentioning renewables. Failure to do so could leave France in a "potentially terrible situation," he warned. Elsewhere, the mayor of Le Havre pointed out that these renewable energy sources should not "destroy landscapes."
