> In fact France did, so this is not pure speculation...

France did what!? France's electricity mainly comes from nuclear, oil and gaz. Solar is nowhere sizeable compared to these three yet. Oil is fossil.



It decarbonized its electricity production by building a lot of nuclear (eg. left fossil fuels in the dust). Of course only partly, as the nuclear fleet still depends on fossil fuels, but still a great achievement.

No, nuclear, hydro and then a fraction of fossil (which is still among the lowest in the world as of today).
