Nov 2012

living in SE PA, not far from Limerick (and having been part of the attempt to keep it from being built in the first place). Also not that far from the nukes in NJ.

Man there are words there I never thought I'd see in the establishment media: "unexpected new capital costs at a time when depressed power prices and cheap renewable energy are squeezing nuclear generation margins..."

I've always thought that it would be the cost in the end that would do it in, but I long ago gave up.
