Inclusive of all the ‘meltdowns’, nuclear power, worker for worker, mw for mw or hour for hour, is the safest form of largescale generation that we have.
A large factor towards not having more of them is that the people who can control the implementation of a new build are also the people that want the public to vote for them.
Due to fear mongering and one sided ‘facts’ in media, the general public don’t trust nuclear power, so would never vote in a politician that is ‘for’ nuclear. At least not until the current generation of voters ‘move on’.
It is such a shame as it is also the cleanest energy generation we have taking into account the start to finish process of all other types of generation.
I dream to one day work in a nuclear fusion plant, should they exist within my working career.
