This massive project will reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and save energy costs for thousands of Kansas Citians. bizjournals.com/kansascity/new…
@MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC Why not build a nuclear power plant that will take up 1/75th the landmass, produce way less overall waste (check out the amount of raw materials to make solar panels), produce way more energy and for at least twice as long?
@lancemb1 @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC Two simple, but absolutely essential questions nuclear advocates can never seem answer up front, but always seem to get later proven wrong if they try to answer 1. How many $billions will one reactor cost? 2. How many years will one reactor take to build?
@New_NRG_Herald @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC Direct costs or costs without the same level of government subsidies given to other forms, particularly solar and wind, of energy? Nuclear is also a threat to current power companies so they push regulations so it takes way longer to build in the US than is necessary.
@New_NRG_Herald @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC While we are asking questions I have two: 1. Who runs @New_NRG_Herald? 2. Where can I find the information on who funds @New_NRG_Herald?
@lancemb1 @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC I ask perfectly reasonable questions about how much things cost and how long they take and Lance here is all ”WHO ARE YOU???”
@New_NRG_Herald @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC My real name is in my profile. I have zero connection or financial interest in any energy company. (Besides what small amounts may be in some fund in my 401K). Cute way to try and dodge my questions. Care to answer or should I just assume your silence speaks volumes?
@lancemb1 @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC You know as well as I that you are demanding to know my name as a deflection. Neither of our names are relevant to the price or build out times of energy sources. You’re entirely unable to answer my 2 simple questions and you know it
@New_NRG_Herald @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC I provided questions that gave context for why prices might vary. Why so reluctant to share your name and source of funding? I think that is very relevant. If you don’t care to share that info. we are at an impasse.
@lancemb1 @MayorLucasKC @QuintonLucasKC A rhetorical question: When has an American nuclear reactor ever been built on time or on budget? You know the answer is that it’s never happened. Right now 2 new reactors are being built in the US at Vogtle in GA. They were approved 17 years ago & are now 2X the original price
