I am a LFTR stan, but: "War, climate worries and oil prices make nuclear power attractive" should be: "War, climate worries and oil prices make ALTERNATIVE ENERGY attractive" The economics of alternative energy + storage is basically a victory in LCOE terms, and the cost / technology curve of solar and storage and the economies of scale are still in ramp-up. So this will go from a "close narrow victory" to a landslide in five years. What nuclear project will be under ten years to delivery? What is the LCOE price point they are contending with to be marketplace competitive? No one knows this, but I would shoot for 1/3 the current nuclear LCOE at a minimum, probably 1/4. Again, I geeked out over LFTR presentations. Modular, safe, 99% fuel use/no solid rod waste, online products extaction, no long-term isotopes, "burn/breed" existing long-term waste into usable fuel, brayton cycle. It doesn't matter, economics are a clear win for alternative energy from a 10 year standpoint. Nuclear and Fusion should simply be research projects at this point. If energy security is the goal, then all-in on alternative energy and EV transportation is the goal. I'm not saying tear down existing generation. Just phase it out as soon as possible
