I don’t think Democrats are virulently anti Nuclear the way Trump hates wind farms. Unlike Trump, I don’t think they’ll just stop a popular project meant to provide power for a region.
And in any case 3 years might not finish projects but it might seed a lot of private investment and R&D
- bluGill 10mo agoThere is no such things as "democrats". There are individual politicians that usually group together. 30 years ago I would confidently say most democrats would be against nuclear, but the political winds have changed. I think the old ones would still be strongly against nuclear, but the younger ones don't care as much.
- amanaplanacanal 10mo agoIt's not a question of being anti-nuclear, is just that nobody is going to pay for it if there are cheaper sources of energy. The only thing that would keep it alive is if the government keeps intentionally killing solar and wind projects.
