Nuclear is an outdated, unsafe, inefficient technology of the past. Let it go.

False on every count. While our government piss away our money on wind, industry is building modular reactors, which will make energy so cheap and accessible that our corrupt cronies that call themselves politicians will have no choice but to adopt it.

What's the actual hard time line and price on when, say, Australia can order 20 modular reactors and have them delivered and online?

In the meantime how many GWh of wind, solar, and battery storage can they install without waiting?

A recent detailed CSIRO report on exactly this considered nuclear modular reactors to be a dud option that kicked the can down the road while continuing a reliance on fossil fuel for power generation.

Renewables were judged the pragmatic best bang for the buck in a multi decade near timeframe.
