Crystal River nuclear plant in Florida shuts down permanently

After the attempted repair of the Crystal River plant failed, I doubted that they would make another attempt to fix it, and I was right.  What is really daunting, however, is the cost of the plant that Duke Power will still try to get back - $1.65 BILLION.   That seems to me to be another good argument for the mini-nuclear power plant model.  However, the Westinghouse AP1000 could still make inroads in the bigger plant category.
