The most important bit is 200.000 - 300.000 tonnes of spent uranium exists in the world today, that means we have to build between 15 and 25 equivalents of the Swedish storage (that isn't even started yet) or 30 - 50 Onkalo (that actually exists)...
You also need to realize the symmetry that Sweden and Finland are building here... we are briding the failing English/American civilization and the now leading (by energy remaining) Russian civilization (Finland has a Russian power plant in Loviisa) by having powerplants AND storage AND a underwater cable between these at each side of the sea.
This is THE project of human civilization, WAAAAAY more important than tesla or spacex (both much more likely to fail and meaningless in comparison).
I'll repeat that France has abandoned the 4th generation tech after 10 years building (76-86), 10 years running (86-96); over 20 years ago! They ARE leaders in that field: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superph%C3%A9nix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superph%C3%A9nix
What I don't understand is their choice to not leave the spent fuel easily recoverable AND why so close to the water when we predict levels will rise way above the entrances to these constructions?!?!
