Every one of them is built as a custom one-off. If we used modern designs, and standardized them, it would bring the costs way down. If we also helped protect them from frivolous lawsuits meant to delay them, it would be even cheaper.

The power of the atom shall set us free, my brothers and sisters!


Here's hoping!

The Real Reason They Hate Nuclear Is Because It Means We Don't Need Renewables The Shrike - 18/04/2019 07:33:37 PM 811 Views
It would be even better if more widely adopted. LiterateDog - 18/04/2019 07:44:28 PM 433 Views
And according to Stan Lee, we will get superheroes out of it! *NM* Cannoli - 19/04/2019 03:55:21 AM 207 Views

I agree with a lot of this, though there's also stuff that irks me. Legolas - 18/04/2019 08:56:01 PM 457 Views

You keep making points better than I could. I agree with your criticisms of the article. *NM* Ghavrel - 19/04/2019 10:07:10 AM 204 Views
True The Shrike - 19/04/2019 01:07:06 PM 433 Views
I'd say yes, but the devil is in the details... *NM* Legolas - 19/04/2019 06:57:07 PM 215 Views
Do you think the GND would have been proposed or even cooked up if the president was a Democrat ? AgentApple - 20/04/2019 05:04:47 PM 398 Views
I assume then there would've been a less half-baked plan, indeed. Legolas - 24/04/2019 06:20:52 PM 390 Views
I've never really connected the two... Jeordam - 18/04/2019 10:32:34 PM 425 Views
I never had much regard for that argument Cannoli - 19/04/2019 04:02:12 AM 435 Views
The real reason they hate solar and wind Roland00 - 19/04/2019 03:04:44 AM 418 Views
So as the nephew of nuclear power plant engineer, that means I'm the in-house expert & last word? *NM* Cannoli - 19/04/2019 04:08:45 AM 202 Views
You are the last word if we want to have a productive internet discussion Roland00 - 19/04/2019 04:18:08 AM 408 Views
They didn't mention the oil & coal industries. Cannoli - 19/04/2019 04:07:16 AM 447 Views
We still lack a long-term nuclear waste repository. Vodalus - 19/04/2019 08:10:23 AM 483 Views
No, we don't lack it. You pointed that out. Yucca Mountain is perfect. Tom - 23/04/2019 02:20:06 AM 404 Views
There's no political willpower to fund it. Until that changes we have no repository for n-waste. *NM* Vodalus - 23/04/2019 07:46:10 AM 217 Views
Doesn't matter what the "willpower" is. We have it The Shrike - 23/04/2019 07:18:27 PM 436 Views
The checkbooks. Kind of hard to do anything without someone having the “will” to pay for it. *NM* Dunstan - 23/04/2019 08:34:58 PM 192 Views
The Republicans aren't the enemy. They're the opposition... Roland00 - 23/04/2019 09:02:30 PM 393 Views
The facility was never completed. Vodalus - 23/04/2019 11:08:27 PM 453 Views
I don't think that it would take that long to complete. Dakaling - 24/04/2019 10:59:35 AM 478 Views
The other part of creating new nuclear facilities will probably take longer than this part. *NM* Roland00 - 24/04/2019 07:27:40 PM 182 Views
The Left wants to establish a direct connection between climate change and the evils of capitalism damookster - 20/04/2019 12:13:49 AM 391 Views
Perhaps it is the opposite? Roland00 - 20/04/2019 01:10:18 AM 407 Views
Perhaps not damookster - 20/04/2019 04:17:34 AM 411 Views
