Why ever not?
I'd say it was the perfect place for it
presumably they'd like some space on-deck for vehicles, rather
than
just a ferry full of generators and diesel tanks?



or a very small nuclear reactor



Well if they can put one in a sub a ferry shouldn't be too difficult.

Of course it isn't. Only public ignorance and superstition stops us



And possibly getting it insured€¦


Again, only public ignorance and superstition stops us


Wrong. The other problem is the stupid cost for what is
at most an hour charging which is no use at all for most.


Don't be silly. You can charge any lithium battery fully in an hour


**** all EVs can do that without reducing the
life of the already stupidly expensive battery.

And last time I did the trip it was longer than an hour


Doesnt happen with the bulk of the cross channel ferries.
