Agree.
Trump has vowed to make the USA energy dominant.
It remains to be seen as to whether he understands that in order to be energy dominant —the USA has to be the lowest priced energy producer in every category—and has to put R&D chips on 4th generation nuclear power as well as fusion power—that promise to collapse the cost of energy to small fractions of today’s costs.
Maybe it needs to be explained to him and the rest of Americans.
About fusion — this is our future and the technology seems to be suffering right now. I don’t have hope that fusion generated power will be available anytime soon — decades, never?, 50 years if we are lucky.
Solar will easily surpass nuclear. It is already a lot cheaper. The storage problem is being solved in at least two ways, embedded capacitors and panels that generate fuel from water. The panels in the labs are 3x more efficient than current commercial panels. The US invented it and will continue to invent more.
That said, I would like to see more R&D for nuclear as well.
