If it can be built without the draconian regulation you see in the west perhaps. Fossil fuel is still required though.

If it is safety regulation you're talking about, that is not exactly a plus for the local population. Sure, it is a non-renewable source of power, but it doesn't produce CO2 after it starts to operate. Ideally, it could be even used to capture carbon from air.

i am a big proponent of nuclear but less than 20% of any country’s energy needs are electricity.
