ČEZ fails to make economic case for expanding Temelín, study says

Nuclear power plant Temelín's expansion does not make economic sense even according to a charitable evaluation of the costs and benefits over the new power production capacity's lifetime, a study presented on Tuesday argues. The Candole Partners’ study undercuts the optimistic arguments of state-controlled power company ČEZ and the pro-nuclear Czech government, but it remains to be seen whether it will ignite real debate about the ongoing nuclear expansion.
