I might just compesate the relentless praising on Finland.
The now finished nuclear plant (Olkiluoto3) was originally planned to be operational at 2009. It was merely 14 years late from the schedule.
There was another plan to build a totally new reactor site. Construction of the plant infra was already started at 2014. Unfortunetly, the main partners for construction and financing came from Russia. The project had lots of problems with state regulations, and did not even manage to get actual building permit before the invasion to Ukraine. All work has naturally been halted since.
There has been high regulatory barriers for new nuclear plants in Finland, and also some really fierce political opposition. It is quite an achievement that many other western nations have managed to make even worse decisions.
