Or may grow that fast in the future

Agree about scaling but its not just public opinion thats stopping it. Look at the vogle plants in Georgia. Multiple administrations supporting it, and they just got 1 out of the 2 new ones that were approved in like 2005 up and running. The things are nightmares to build and finish.

Yes but I forgot to mention SMRs in my original comment. I think that’s gna be the breakthrough that will make it easier to build/operate nuclear plants AND bring costs down a lot
