How much of the cost thing like the $1B cooling solution because Diablo Canyon was an “old” design from the 70s.

I’d imagine future investment doesn’t doesn’t mean building more Diablo style reactors.

A big problem that promoting nuclear usually comes with plenty of arguments in the form of the problems of old reactors (like the Tokyo disaster one being built in the 1950s).

To be fair this is California, which can’t been been a mile of high speed rail for under $1B. It means absolutely nothing in terms of costs.
