The manufacturing/construction capability for nuclear needs to be global, rather than national. There is plenty of need for new nuclear to sustain and grow the expertise around the world. This goes for the governments as well, but unfortunately governments seem to be abysmal about learning from other countries.

I'm hoping China will leverage this and actually make some real modular mini nuke plants and make the US jealous enough to do the same. The USA has been stuck in the 60s as far as nuclear tech goes. Unpragmatic "environmental" groups have all but killed it here out of Luddite fears of teh nuclear radiation.

Yes, lack of success for exporting nuclear plants is killing nuclear industry in Japan.
