Excellent news
The best time to build a nuclear reactor was 30 years ago, but I am sceptical that we can build the storage capacity to fully and reliably decarbonise with renewables while similtaniously decarbonising transport. This on a global scale using extremely sought after rare earths that we posess relatively little of.
The Materials required to build reactors are cheap and abondant. The amount of Uranium required to supply a plant for 10 years is small enough that it can be stored on site. It would alse be possible to extract Uranium from seawater, a supply that would last until the sun expands and swalows the planet.
This will be over soon. When the EU’s Data Act comes into force, car manufacturers will be obliged to allow access to vehicle data.
