Safety of Nuke Power
i live within 50 miles of shippingport power station.
You probably enjoy reasonably-priced, if not CHEAP, electric power.
not true at all, pittsburgh had some of the highest electric rates in
the nation, untill a few years ago, duquesne light sold off power
generation, rates dropped, now they are headed up agan big
time.........
around here nuke didnt equal low cost.
as a matter of fact stranded costs were a big issue, and why
generation was sold off
no matter what you claim selling nuke, espically new nuke, and the
transmission lines that go with it, is going to be a tough to
impossible sell.
my katrina comments are based we are nearly all uninsured if a reactor
poisions a region.
claims will hit the fedreal cap, and that will be that. the power
companies nor the feds have the bucks to compensate folks for a
chernobyl sized disaster
