Comment on Does the Coalition’s case for nuclear power stack up? We factcheck seven key claims
unionagainstdhmo@aussie.zone 3 months agoI can’t remember where but they mention in the report that SMRs were the most suitable form of reactor for Australia according to some industry consultation and it being difficult to realise the full costings of the large scale “traditional” nuclear reactors due to government subsidies, lack of transparency and different labour costs in Australia VS somewhere else 50 years ago.
Do you think the Coalition (or any hypothetical but still possible Australian Government) could actually deliver nuclear by 2040? Given the lack of expertise and experience, as well as pushback from States and lack of private investment I think it’s really unlikely

Hell no they got no chance delivering it on time and on budget but thats literally every single government project in the history of government projects.
