When these conversations take place in the policy space, everyone agrees to do nothing, and you end up with situations where power plants with <100 year lifetimes are de facto storage facilities for the foreseeable future.

Living in New York, all of the nuclear facilities will be decommissioned in my lifetime, and the ratepayers or taxpayers will be paying for upkeep of the storage components for decades or centuries. We already have to provide direct subsidy just to keep them operating as they aren’t financially viable.

That’s why nuclear doesn’t get built today.
