should Australia be considering nucular power as a reliable power source.

If you've benefited from one or more of my posts please remember, your taxes paid for my skill sets, I'm just trying to make sure you get your monies worth.
If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.
Yes. You should have made a Poll with the thread - do you want me to add one?
If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.
Absolutely should be considered, but only when the costs of construction, commissioning, decommissioning and waste disposal are transparent.
I'm not opposed to it by any means but the economics need to stack up in an age where all the investment seems to be going to renewables and add ons like batteries, and research into these.

yes
noone's ever died from a properly designed and operated nuclear power plant.
Yes, absolutely
I'd even have no concerns using an RTG to help power my car.
They are not very efficient but last 22 years, you could just have it constantly charge the battery as an adjunct to regular charging.
Hi
When you factor in the decommissioning costs they are uneconomic.
No insurance company will touch them so all insurance is borne by the Govt i.e. the taxpayer.
The US has had to pass legislation to extend the operating life of many of their reactors beyond their designed lifespan to postpone decommissioning them - just because of the cost.
Just last week it was announced that the cost of decommissioning Hanford has blown out to US$660 billion and has stalled because that amount of $ is simply not available from Congress.
The prices of power from renewable energy sources has undercut nuclear power so much that the later is now not viable.
When I say we should not have Nuclear power is Australia - trust me 'I'm a Doctor" :-)

We have the most stable conditions on Earth for nuclear reactors. Political, geological, environmental, economic, etc, etc. And the raw material is abundant and easily mined. And we have large areas in which to store the 'waste' until it can be reprocessed and much more energy extracted in the future. Yes, we absolutely should be using modern, efficient, safe nuclear technology here in Aus. Completely bonkers that the scare mongering surrounding issues seen elsewhere have stopped this clean energy source locally. Boggles my mind.
