“The US nuclear power industry gets up to 20% of its enriched #uranium from #Russia… France imports 15%. Framatome, which is owned by state-backed nuclear power operator, EDF, signed a cooperation agreement with #Rosatom in December 2021, two months before Russia’s invasion…”🤔
“The #Czech Republic’s energy company, CEZ, has signed contracts with Pennsylvania-based Westinghouse Electric Company and the #French company Framatome to supply fuel assemblies for its [#nuclear] plant in Temelin.”🤔 #sanctions #competition
“In #Finland, Fennovoima, an energy company, terminated a… project with #Rosatom to build a #nuclear reactor. Another company, Fortum, has hired Westinghouse to design, license and supply a new fuel type for its plant in Loviisa, Finland, after its current contracts expire.”🤔

“… in countries where support for #Russia’s gov’t has held up, #Rosatom’s one-stop shopping and financing remain enticing. Russian-built reactors can be found in #China, #India… #Iran… #Armenia & #Belarus. Construction has begun on #Turkey’s first #nuclear power plant…”🤔
“#Russia’s tightest grip is on the market for nuclear fuel. It controls 38% of the world’s #uranium conversion & 46% of the uranium enrichment capacity — essential steps in producing usable fuel. ‘That’s equal to all of #OPEC put together in terms of market share and power’…”🤔

“Some kits are being resold online. They appear to be Rapid Response antigen tests, the same brand being handed out by the province. Posters on Craigslist and TikTok were asking anywhere between $80 and $100 per box of five tests.”🤔 #COVID19 #ConsumerProtection
“In March 2020, Ontario announced fines of up to $500,000 for those who raise prices significantly for ‘necessary goods’ which at the time included PPE, non-prescription medications to treat #COVID19 symptoms, personal hygiene products and disinfectants.”🤔 #ConsumerProtection
