Well even if reactors are very safe, there is still a huge problem with maintenance costs.
Belgium for example has some old reactors. There are micro cracks appearing but because this is still not an issue they keep the oldest reactor open for another 10 years.
But what if there will be a point in time when Belgium doesn't have the funds to maintain this reactor?
