It seems to me not true to write that Italy is " trying to reduce [its] dependence on nuclear electricity". Firstly, Italy has no nuclear plants (although it buys a lot of nuclear electricity from France and Switzerland). Secondly, Italy is preparing itself for a nuclear future : ENEL (Italy's main electrity utility) has made an agreement with EDF (France biggest electricity company) to participate in the development of the European Pressurized Water Reactor, the third generation reactor also being built in Finland. So, if Italy is far from being a nuclear country like Sweden, France or Belgium, it seems to make some steps in that direction...
