This is what nuclear power enthusists like to ignore when they talk about nuclear power being a solution to energy and climate change.
- Cthulhu_ 2mo agoIs that a fact or are you just trying to spark a debate?
- inigyou 2mo agoSeems like a fact to me?
- fylo 2mo agoEvery power source has trade offs, bud. They call solar renewable, but in fact panels have a shelf life, and take valuable finite resources and energy to manufacture. This is what climate change activists like to ignore /s
- inigyou 2mo agoGlad you added the /s because solar panels only wear out over hundreds of years.
- mertbio 2mo agoThey also constantly criticise Germany and its nuclear power plant closures, linking almost every negative news story about the country to this issue. It seems they’re completely unaware of the potential consequences of operating a nuclear power plant.
- sajithdilshan 2mo agoA lot of energy crisis in Germany is due to the closure of their power plants. Just like any other infrastructure, nuclear power plants needs to be modernised over the time and Hungary didn’t do that. It’s not the fault of nuclear technology, but lack of management in Hungary’s case
- bsza 2mo agoWorth mentioning we also had to shut down the largest block in our largest gas power plant on the exact same day due to an unrelated error. https://www.dert.hu/hu/sajtoszoba/0/141 https://www.dert.hu/hu/sajtoszoba/0/141 (in Hungarian, couldn't find an English source)
