Nuclear energy isn't threatened by this. It's threatened by the fact that it's impossible to build one at a profit.
That's why factory fabricated microreactors are such a cool concept!
The cost of electricity from those is even more expensive than from conventional nuclear.
And by the time that concept becomes reality we'll either be running 100% renewable energy or dead from climate change
Nope. Deployment of factory fabricated microreactors is planned for the 2030s.
Ah, plans! Well then, that's a guarantee! No way they'll hit unexpected roadblocks and go massively overbudget like every other nuclear project
You should educate yourself about GenIV reactors (designs, supply chains, costs...) before you embarrass yourself.
I don't need to add to the embarrassment that is the nuclear industry
