The mining and processing of the “fuel” is not. The cost of the plants and the risks neither. That’s why nuclear is slowly losing to regenerative.
Btw, from the World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2024 > Key Insights:
Russia is also playing a key role in the supply of fuel
services, involving uranium mining, conversion, and
fuel assembly manufacturing for Soviet-designed
VVER pressurized water reactors, of which there
are 19 in the E.U. and 15 in Ukraine. International
sanctions have had little effect on the business. On
the contrary, the share of Russian supply of natural
uranium, conversion, and enrichment services to
the E.U. all increased between pre-war year 2021
and 2023; VVER fuel imports doubled.
And you can see all of my points confirmed in that report.
Thank you Junior. Don’t forget to wear you shoes when you go play in the asbestos pit at school. I put two cigarettes in your lunchbox you can have one at lunch if your teacher says its okay and one on the way to home after your shift at the radium watch painting factory.
Never forget the future that was taken from us.
It’ll come back eventually unless fusion takes over. The power density promises are simply too attractive.
Never mind that pesky burning taste, imagine the power savings!
It always smells like bloody sinus in our house after changing the wafer.
That means it’s working!

Well that the enormous initial cost and time to construct
I think it’s losing due to the cost of the electricity over its lifetime
Thank you Green Peace /s
Bunch of short sighted uninformed hippies
Funded by fossil fuels. The scariest concept to a capitalist is something being too cheap to matter.
A lot of terrible things have been done by good people with good intentions who had no idea what the fuck they were talking about.
Of course, mother!
