About 7 years ago, the UK govt signed a contract for a new nuclear power plant (which is currently being built) with EDF, with a fixed strike price of £92 per MWh.
Cue the press and opposition going crazy and bashing the government for "overpaying".
Fast forward to 2022 and electricity is being sold for £323 per MWh, having hit £560 per MWh in August.
The govt deal on the nuclear is now looking very good! Thank goodness they resisted caving to the know-nothings in the media.
