A draft PPE published on 25 January 2019 by the Ministry for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition states that the Government, together with the industry, will conduct a programme of work by mid-2021 to examine the questions of the cost of new nuclear energy production and its advantages and disadvantages in relation to other low-carbon generation methods, the possible financing models, the project management modalities for new reactor projects and public consultation, and matters relating to the management of waste generated by the potential new nuclear fleet and based on this information and depending on developments in the energy situation, the Government will make a decision regarding the suitability of launching a renewal programme for nuclear installations. The Group is fully mobilised in the investigation and preparation of this case in all its components, in conjunction with the public authorities.
At 31 December 2020, property, plant and equipment in progress used in generation and owned by the Group mainly comprise:
This capitalised amount of €14,792 million including capitalised interim interest, includes, in addition to the construction cost:
In its report of July 2020 on EPR technology, the French Court of Auditors (Courdes comptes) stated that by its calculations, in addition to the construction cost of€12.4 billion (in 2015 euros) announced by EDF, there will be further costs that could reach €6.7 billion (in 2015 euros), including €4.2 billion of interest expenses. As stated above, at 31 December 2020 the capitalised interest amounts to €3.3 billion and other capitalised project costs amount to €1.2 billion.
The non-recurring additional costs resulting from the necessary repairs to the main secondary circuit welds are recorded in other income and expenses at the amount of €397 million in 2020 (see note 7);
(1) €292 million in gross value, less €84 million of depreciation.
