Get back to me when one new #nuclear plant is licensed in the US, and then get back to me a decade later and tell me how many more years until it will be finished at three to five times the original cost estimate.
Meanwhile, in 2023, the US installed #solar with the capacity equivalent of 34 nuclear plants in ONE year.
