Such a shame. Nuclear power is a stable source of low-emission energy and the technology today is very safe and effective. Another victim of ignorant fearmongering, at least in the U.S. and Europe. Nuclear power is growing healthily in China and South Korea, from what I've heard.

Huge sunk costs and little investment interest compared to other areas of energy like pipelines and renewables like solar/wind. Lots of community opposition. Essentially opening new plants is very difficult/expensive and unlikely to take off regardless of clean power act and push to divest from oil and coal

This sounds cool, followinf

V big obstacles to growth compared to other kinds of renewable energy

@pwc1 all valid points. Not the firm I'm talking to but look at Terra Power for some good reading. They use traveling wave reactor tech that actually uses depleted uranium as a fuel

Lifecycle per/MW costs are simply unsustainably high relative to natural gas and renewables. and there is little hope on the horizon.

But I would look at the opportunity more than the industry. There's probably opportunities to do cool stuff in the timeframe of a normal career - someone's gonna have to figure out what to do with what we've already got and how to pay for it, and those are well-compensated positions with interesting elements of risk assurance, project/program management, finance, regulation, dot dot dot.
