Will the reactors be mothballed, converted, or torn down? Ideally if political winds change and the reactors are mothballed, could they be restarted?
I live near the Fort St. Vrain Generating Station, a nuclear plant converted to gas in the 90s, and I often think about what could have been if it had been made commercially viable earlier in its life.
