there’s such a call… but it’s dominated by petty local prejudices and weird beliefs, like all politics is. germans want to go all wind and solar, but they also don’t want any of this stuff near their homes, and they don’t want nuclear because it’s so dangerous, etc etc
- croes 5y agoNuclear energy plants are dangerous especially if you think about who is going to build them. The same people who built the Berlin airport would also build the power plants.
- valyagolev 5y agothere are already six built in germany. and a nuclear plant is not an architectural passion project. the same people who built a lot of quite well executed german infrastructure would build them
- croes 5y ago>there are already six built in germany. and a nuclear plant is not an architectural passion project. the same people who built a lot of quite well executed german infrastructure would build them That was some time a go, nowadays the execution is not quite so well, not to mention cost explosion, massive schedule overrun, just look at Stuttgart 21
- q1w2 5y agoThe international companies that build airports are absolutely not the same companies that build nuclear power plants. Nuclear power plant construction is not a huge industry, and there are only a few companies globally that do it.
