<p>So we just have to build the first expensive 20 to get the experience and then we reap the rewards after 40 years when we need the knowledge again?<p>If nuclear would be cheap in the western world I'd be all for it but we just can't do large projects in our ccurrent system.<p>Solar + wind + battery is much less of an headache.</p>

<p>So do you hold a grudge or why are you talking in the fucking past? Conservatives lacking a spine is now "they phased out Nuclear due to populist concerns" ok.<p>Is your solution to look in the past and blame everyone to solve the problems today?<p>Of course in Hindsight phasing out nuclear so fast was a mistake. Does that solve our problems now?</p>

<p>I agree on that fully - but that is a completely different point. The Lifetime extension and the costs associated to that are not clear to me. But of course letting an already paid project run is a no brainer if the costs are not blowing up.<p>I don't like the assumption that this calculation was not done by the book due to the greens being in charge of that. It's always the question: Lifetime extension can cost a lot and maybe it only buys 5 years. Basically I assume there was a € price and it was too high to pay. Maybe CDU would've payed that price but I don't think either is wrong.</p>

<p>Wow - a nuclear-head in the wild.<p>Tell me please how building nuclear plants today will solve our problems in the 15-20 years it takes to build them.<p>Or how the conservative party did phase out nuclear? They were 16 years at the helm, why couldn't they stop it?<p>But no the fringe party is at fault for everything. That rhetoric is both completely unfounded and basically far-right propaganda. Congratulations - you got targeted and manipulated into a single issue voter.</p>
