AREVA and Mitsubishi have partnered to produce nuclear fuel in the United States, in Richland, Washington to be exact about it:
Mitsubishi Nuclear Fuel and AREVA to Start a New Nuclear Fuel Company
If we'd build some more reactors here in the U.S. of A, maybe we could use this fuel rather than shipping it to more enlightened countries.
Speaking of which, there are plans afoot (or is that at-sea?) to build a mega wind farm offshore of Rhode Island:
Proponents double size of wind farm plan
Wind farm would link northeastern grids
That much real estate in the ocean for what?
200 turbines x 6 megawatts = 1200 megawatts. About the same as a classic mid-size nuclear plant.
Who are we kidding with these plans?
