[ RadSafe ] True cost of energy sources

[Doug Aitken]

An interesting article in this week's Economist, looking at a study on the "real" cost of various sources of energy, that shows just how economic nuclear power really is ("almost" as efficient as the latest generation gas-powered generators (and how wind and solar really lag a lot!):

As usual, the comments are as interesting as the article!

Enjoy!!
