For anyone interested in this national referendum, it’s peak bull crap.

No option available to continue with nuclear power

You have to bear in mind that the public was hugely against it. No political party dared to push for it, although negotiations were held.

> The Moderates, the People's Party and the Social Democrats held separate negotiations to formulate a joint yes option with the implication that the reactors would be allowed to be used during their technical lifespan, which was estimated at 25 years. These negotiations finally broke down mainly because the Moderates could not accept the additional proposals: that the state or the municipalities would own the nuclear power plants and that so-called surplus profits from private production of hydropower would be withdrawn through taxation.

So the referendum didn't have an option because of opinion polls?
