Sweden: Nuclear power and nuclear fission technology is not only a risky but also an unreliable type of energy source

Nuclear power and nuclear fission technology is not only a risky but also an unreliable type of energy source. Half of the Swedish plants are currently not in operation. The newest shutdown means that Swedish nuclear power is currently running on low power. In addition to the fact that two reactors in Forsmark are therefore out of operation, Ringhals 4 is also scheduled for an annual audit. This means that only half of the available nuclear power is in operation at the moment. But electricity consumption is currently relatively low because it is hot outside. If the stop in Forsmark 1 is short-lived, the consequence on the electricity price will not be huge. https://www.nyteknik.se/energi/vi-vet-inte-vad-det-ar-reaktor-i-forsmark-har-snabbstoppats/4190143
