It seems to me the biggest hurdle in nuclear energy is the (lack of) speed with which you can build a new plant (and therefore cost). It seems to me that any new type of reactor must be built much more efficiently in order to gain traction. I bet a new plant with "old" design which can be built in 2yrs would be much more popular than a new plant with state of the art reactors which can be built in 5 years.
