Staffing and maintenance.
The United States is actually facing an energy crisis right now that nobody knows about. A lot of power plants are run through tribal knowledge, AKA “this is how we’ve always done it.” The issue is that a massive amount of that knowledge is stored in the older heads running those plants, and they’re about to retire. That means all that knowledge will effectively poof out of existence.
Third-world countries don’t even have the old hands available that we do. They can’t coax Jim out of retirement and ask him to help run a power plant until the staff is properly trained.
