This is the so-called "no matter what the price, I hope to be re elected" p> < p > the investment in nuclear energy in the "France 2030" plan has attracted a lot of attention, because macron announced at the beginning of his inauguration that he plans to close 14 reactors by 2035 and reduce the proportion of nuclear energy in France's energy structure from 75% to 50%. Some energy professionals said that the move was trying to attract the votes of French right-wing people, because at this time, many right-wing presidential candidates promised to improve France's nuclear power capacity p> < p > on October 12 local time, in Paris, France, French President macron announced the source of the "France 2030" plan: visual China < / P > < p > comprehensive information from the financial times and the European times.

He said: "we want Elon Musk to come to France." < / P > < p > musk, known as "technology geek" and "Iron Man", is undoubtedly a representative figure of new technology entrepreneurs. When introducing the plan, macron also took musk and SpaceX as examples to explain why global innovation develops faster than expected, And why success is often the product of private sector inventions combined with state funds or procurement p> < p > "this plan must be launched quickly." macron said that 3-4 billion euros in "France 2030" can be put into use next year and included in the 2022 budget p> < p > although "France 2030" in macron's words sounds grand, the Financial Times quoted various views that the content of the plan itself is still vague p> < p > it is reported that ludovich sabran, chief economist of Allianz, a German insurance company, pointed out that it is not clear how macron's plan reached a total investment of 30 billion euros.

I bet the French Ministry of finance is doing the same thing now." < / P > < p > in response to the query that the content of the plan is too vague, Philip Martin, chairman of the French economic analysis Commission, said that he understood the concerns of critics, but in the absence of any project bidding, it was "unpopular" for senior management to decide and finalize the detailed investment plan in advance p> < p > macron announced the "France 2030" plan source: visual China < / P > < p > in addition to the vague content of the plan, macron's investment in nuclear energy has also become another controversial point p> < p > in fact, France is the fortress of nuclear power in Europe, and more than 70% of the country's electricity comes from nuclear power plants. Supporters of nuclear energy development believe that nuclear energy is valuable at a time of soaring natural gas prices, and these advantages protect French industrial enterprises and consumers from the worst price increases in other parts of Europe p> < p > as for the opponents, they are more concerned about the safety of nuclear power generation.
