Swiss try to give away nuclear plants, but find no takers  

RNE reports that you can't even give away a nuclear power plant in Switzerland these days - Swiss try to give away nuclear plants, but find no takers.

On the weekend, Swiss media reported (in German and in French) that Swiss reactor operator Alpiq could find no buyer for its two nuclear plants and is therefore hoping to give them to the Swiss state. The firm’s CEO is quoted saying that France’s EDF was not interested even at no cost because it “has its own problems pertaining to nuclear power at present.”
