The making safe at end of life has got way out of hand. A great way to use scare tactics to milk even more money out of a costly job.Yees, but no CO2? Come on. You need to factor in the building and making safe at end of life into the equation, otherwise I'm with you. They should have converted Battersy into one, that would have ensured it was safe.....
Construction costs are also out of proportion. They insist now on buildings being proof against airliner strikes after 911 even though cockpits are sealed off. Not only do the reactor buildings need to be 747 proof but even the workshops!
Hopefully the Rolls Royce small modular reactors will gain popularity. They are talking about sitting the first ones at Wylfa.
They can put one by my warehouse if I can have some waste heat
