It seems to me much of the problem is that the nuclear energy industry was build up in the old days of fossil fuel electric utilities, and so is modeled to fit into that. It just isn't structured right for the new world of global climate change, renewable energy, and electricity storage. Maybe one of the new nuclear technologies that is being worked on will turn out to be a help in the new world. But I am not going to wait.
