Ontario Canada is planning on spending $400 Billion on a nuclear plant. And that's before the inevitable cost overruns. The government is running ads touting that they're doing it to stay competitive.
Having the most expensive energy in the entire world is not the way to be competitive. Especially when next door to Quebec with its cheap hydro power.
Maybe Europe will take the "most expensive energy in the world" title away from Ontario. Europe's LNG energy infrastructure is expensive, but new build nuclear is even more expensive.
- Gud 7mo agoSource for these numbers?
- bryanlarsen 7mo agoAsking for sources is lazy JAQ rebuttal. The numbers are readily available and trivial to Google, easily falsifiable. If I'm lying you can post a rebuttal and score your Internet points that way.
