Why do you need renewable when there is practically unlimited nuclear fuel available. > * we don't know what to do with nuclear wastes, and we start to have a lot Nuclear waste is nuclear fuel. Different types of reactors can use that 'waste' and produce energy. Some reactor types produce far less, easier to deal with 'waste'. Much of that waste again can be used for different application. The Nuclear waste issue is one of the most successful fear mongering campaigns ever. The necessary science is done, early version of the technology were developed and are proven to work. The problem is that no more work is put in developing and improving nuclear power but renewable energy gets money for research and subsidies like crazy. Coal also gets subsidies in many places. > * every now and then, you have to dismantle old nuclear plants, and it appears the cost is totally exuberant This is again manly a problem because of the lack of improvement over time. Different types of reacts would make this far easier. Sadly however we are still using the type of reactors designed for submarines.
