When they do this on their own dime and get results years ahead of competitors, is that a bad thing? If not for crew dragon, the US would be begging Russia for seats to the ISS still. Is that your preferred outcome?

I disagree. My point was that, just like with renewables, a 100% nuclear grid doesn't work either. They can adjust power but they're typically used as he load with some other source dealing with the peak load needed a short time a

The Finnish reactor had one delay because the concrete used for the containment building wasn't of the 'nuclear grade'. That's why those regulations thankfully exist. Building more will help though. This whole thread sta

But then also be honest that nuclear can't solve that problem either. It's extremely slow to ramp up and down so it cannot keep the grid stable either. So the only way to power your grid with all nuclear is to produce at the daily

Iter is a research project that Europe is a part of, along with the rest of the world. That has nothing to do with building power plants, at least not anytime soon. We haven't built a reactor in a long time. So those EPRs being built a
