One country should have been enough to create an economy of scale. And yet even France's nuclear industry went almost bank rot from building new reactors despite all the experience from the past.
- ethbr1 2y agoUnfortunately, scale isn't global given how many of the regulatory limiting factors are country-specific (and even worse, site-specific).
- uecker 2y agoBut not even in France it it not cheap and the "regulatory limiting factors" are partially true, but also partially an excuse and not the only factor which makes nuclear expensive.
