[ RadSafe ] Nuclear Power in Saudi Arabia

[George Stanford]

      Because it's much cheaper than solar, and they can sell their 
oil to others??

The Shaw Group, Inc., Toshiba & Execelon are planning to work with 
the Saudis on building nuke electric generating plants in Saudi 
Arabia.  Note that Shaw & Toshiba own Westinghouse Nuclear, the 
designer of the AP1000 series nuclear plants.

Question:  With all that sun and all that oil why does Saudi Arabia 
need electric energy from nuclear fuel?
