Perhaps they should drop the expensive and loss-making nuclear power plants and liberalize the electricity market?

None of them are at the right scale. It’s nuclear or a very strong reduction in needs.

Germany didn't drop nuclear because of economic issues. France is heavily indebted and spends large sums subsidizing its nuclear industry - and that is not economically sustainable.

What about more public assets ? Private compagnies goals is to make money, so they will break the market to do so. Like for exemple USA, where the cost of energy is outrageous.

Experience and data document that private companies deliver cheaper and better products and services than their government-owned peers.

Do you leave in a parallele universe ? Do you know where the power grid hold perfectly the charge during winter ? France, where energy is mostly public. Do you know where it did not ? USA, where it's private.

You are comparing apples and bananas. U.S. power grid is owned by public and private and public/private and it is regulated by the government regardless of whether it is owned by private investors or governmental bodies.

The electricity market is liberalized in UE. Since then, prices have risen. Genius.

Without liberalization prices would have increased much more..... Liberalization did't rise gasprices, did it? It didn't spark inflation, did it? It didn't initiate war in Ukraine, did it? French electricity marked is heavily regulated and subsidized, itsn't it?
