“Is nuclear power really as slow and expensive as they say it is?” | Sabine Hossenfelder


Is nuclear power really as slow and expensive as they say it is?” | Sabine Hossenfelder

In a word: No

Sabine is a German theoretical physicist. She looks in detail at these two issues: cost and construction time for nuclear power plants. In Australia the main criticism on the anti nuclear side — when they’re not doing dopey memes — is that they cost too much and take too long. 

Wrong.
