If there is one subject over which European society is split, it must be nuclear energy. The 'darling' of energy policy for the majority of EU Member States during the 'glorious thirties', for the past two decades it has been at the centre of much controversy - so much so that several European countries have stated their desire to abandon nuclear energy altogether.
