Comment on why is fossil fuel still used?

For profit companies already run reactors on dry land, which don’t move, and are heavily regulated and constantly observed.
Obviously, the risk profile is vastly different when you put the reactor on a boat.
Putting them on a boat is not well understood. Australia just doesn’t have personnel experienced with any kind of reactor. We don’t have a nuclear industry. It’s not as simple as plonking a box named “reactor” on the boat and calling it a day.
