  • New Nuclear Gets Built When Governments Run Development & Taxpayers Take The Risk

    The section emphasizes the challenges of financing new nuclear power projects and the importance of government intervention in making them economically viable. It discusses the role of standardization in nuclear technology markets, using China as an example, and highlights the need for patient capital, standardized designs, controlled change, repeat construction, and durable supply chains in nuclear programs. Examples from Britain and Czechia illustrate how government support and ownership are necessary for new nuclear projects to attract investment. The conclusion stresses that new nuclear power becomes investable when governments reshape the risk profile through funding, regulation, and support, and suggests that countries should make visible commitments to nuclear energy and compare it with alternatives on a full basis.
