I guess France is not counting the prototype third generation EPR Flammanville 3 unit when it talks about first new reactors in decades?

It'll be interesting to know if this new building programme will use the same design which has been problematic for France and Finland (Olkiluoto Nuclear Power Plant). Even China, which has the only two operational EPR reactors, seem to have had more problems with it compared to other designs.
