A major nuclear plant that Britain’s government hopes will generate affordable, low-carbon energy could cost up to 46 billion pounds, or $59 billion, and the completion date could be delayed to after 2029.

    Weird how anything that can possibly reduce fossil fuel usage is always too expensive, yet building pipelines, and north sea oil platforms, and shipping oil all over the world is free or the cost is not worth talking about.

        Sure but they can’t replace fossil fuels. Every single renewable energy scheme that a government invests int has Natural Gas plants that are running 24/7 to handle peak demand and smooth out the supply curve of solar/wind.
