It is the government red tape and lawsuits. It is getting nearly impossible to build a nuclear power plant in the United States anymore. I am not a big fan of federal control but just like printing money and raising an army, the electrical grid is really a national responsibility today. As such, the federal government should fund and contract the construction and operation of nuclear power plants. As we transition from fossil fuels to alternative forms of energy, we will need to drastically upgrade or rebuild our electrical power grids. Otherwise, we are doomed to major power outages and cyber attacks.
