Nuclear is no replacement for the critical uses of gas, noone wants to build it anyway because it’s expensive AF, and yes of course companies are moaning. They always are.
A full 1/3rd of German gas use is domestic heating which is getting replaced by heat pumps now, up to 70% of the replacement costs get covered by the state. Because, apparently, Germany wants to stick with Russian gas? Meanwhile, French industry uses ballpark the same amount of gas as the German industry. Yet noone is talking about the French industry controlling the French state, making them bow to Russians.
The fuck are you people talking about. What parallel dimension are you living in.
As Europe overall is weaning itself off natural gas (Germany leads, but others will follow once the economics of scale are there) Norway will in all likelihood be the only supplier for a while.

But what about France 🤡
Where did france import their gas from? Where is their current supply mix?
Mostly they’re buying from Norway, their mix hasn’t really changed.
