1900 km Long Wind Farm Coming to a City Near You

Nuclear Power is Sooooo Expensive !!

So goes the Urban Myth.

What do we want? - Electricity !
What do we pay for? - kWh
What's the best value?


Onshore Wind costs 62% more 
per kWh than Nuclear

And how many Dorenells = 1 Hinkley?

1,543,000,000,000 ÷ 14,235,000,000 = 108

108 Dorenells cost:           £39.4bn 
1 Hinkley costs:                  £24.5bn !


What size would 108 Dorenells be?


It would be a [108 x 15.5 =] 1,674 sq km Wind Farm !

But Hinkley's site is only 0.87 km wide x 0.87 km long.
 So how long would a Wind Farm be 
if it were only 0.87 km wide?
It would be: [1,674 ÷ 0.87 =]        1900 km long !

"..I just love the sight of those majestic Wind Turbines.."

but please - Not In My City Yard !

That's NIMCYs for you !

If the Influential, Idiotic Supporters of Wind Energy, like Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth and WWF, along with their duped Media Quizlings, have their way, 16 GW of New Nuclear will be replaced by Wind Turbines.

If Hinkley's 3.2 GW of Nuclear Power costs £14.9bn less than the equivalent number of wind farms, 
16 GW of New Nuclear would save £74.5bn

Hinkley Point C 1.6 p/kWh <<<<< Navitus Bay 4.7 p/kWh

Thank Goodness Navitus Bay Has Been Rejected !

Electricity from it would have cost nearly 
3 x more per kWh than electricity from Hinkley Point C !

The site is nearly 230 x the size of 
Hinkley Point C !

There's 6.8 x more 'Dream Jobs' at Hinkley Point C than there would have been 'Greenish Jobs' at Navitus Bay !

Hinkley Point C will supply 350 million home years - 20 x more than Navitus Bay's 17.5 million home years !

Nuclear Power Currently Saves The USA $34 Billion - Each and Every Year!



This report was linked in a piece headed 
'Renewed Interest in Nuclear Power'
Unfortunately, it doesn't pick out this not insignificant 
tit-bit of information!

Dear Mr President - $34,000,000,000 per year would pay for quite a few new build PRISM reactors, 
each and every year!

AND

Save 10s of thousands of premature deaths of your esteemed electorate from atmospheric pollution
each and every year!

Also, have a look at the link to: [Japan] 
'are planning to bring 21 nuclear power plants online':

Australia's PRISMs and their No. 1 PRISMer

From The Studios of The Australian Broadcasting Corporation
Robyn Williams Introduces:
Dr Oscar Archer

Who says: 

Give Australia your nuclear waste, those poor unwanted masses so you can breathe free. The wretched refuse of your reactor storage caskets. Send this hopeless, tossed-away refuse to us! 


With this opening shot Dr Archer might well expect a rough ride:
"...and it [the concept] goes like this. Australia establishes the world’s first multinational repository for used fuel - what's often called nuclear waste..."

But it gets much better - 'Listen Now' or Download.

"...At maturity, Australia is primarily running on PRISM reactors fuelled by the used fuel we received. The world is running on a much larger number of Generation III+ reactors that we supply with our uranium exports under a fuel leasing model. 

The transition to PRISM world-wide is under-way on the back of Australia’s pioneering embrace of this technology with support of key partners. Australia is exporting the starter bundles of metal fuel from our own PRISM fleet while continuing to derive revenue from the multi-national repository and uranium exports..."

Now Dr Archer couldn't say fairer than that - could he?

It's well worth a 12 minutes listen of anybody's time!
