Another dumb thread from the nuclear shills and uranium stock rampers club.
" They want nationwide solar panels and wind farms, the latter being hugely detrimental to wildlife especially sea life, and they can't see beyond what they have fixed their rhetoric on "
l note you haven't bothered to provide and evidence to support that claim . Clearly it's just more RWNJ bs.
" mini reactors " ???????
Do you mean the ones that don't actually exist ?
Feel free to answer this list of questions. So far none of the nuclear shills have managed to do it.
1. How long would it take to get the legislation changed ? Give the recent referendum result l suspect it would take a very long time.
2. Once the legislation is changed how long would it take to establish a nuclear support industry similar to that of nuclear countries ?
3. How much would all that cost ?
4. Once all that is done how long would it take to build one baseload nuclear power station ?
5. How much would that power station cost ?
6. Where would they get the water from ?
7. Which council or community in Australia would host a nuclear power station ? Considering that people are losing their minds at wind turbines that they can't see how do you think you'd go building a nuke anywhere in Australia ?
8. Where will you store the toxic nuclear waste and used nuclear equipment for thousands of years ?
9. Who will pay for that storage and security for thousands of years ?
10. How would that nuclear power station compete in the market with renewables when mature coal fired power stations can't in 2023 ?
11. While we're waiting multiple decades for all that to happen what we do for electricity ?
In the meantime good old renewables continue to grow and displace more fossil year on year. Smoothly and seamlessly without anyone noticing.
Look at that . Over 23 million people on the east coast of Australia getting 66% of their electricity from renewables during the day. A number that is growing quickly.
Going on the chart, the imaginary nukes better get a wriggle on, otherwise they will be redundant before they are even built.
What's that ? Did you say " what about at night " ?
