New report out: Germany can restart 3 reactors by 2028, 9 by 2032.

Four key graphics summarize:

1. Current physical status of German nuclear
2. Timeline and scale if nuclear returns
3. Nuclear map and restart difficulty
4. German support for nuclear

www.radiantenergygroup.com/reports/rest...
Germany's nuclear reactors and plants sorted broadly from fast and cheap to restart, to costly and slow to restart, with their main systems and structures listed as icons indicating readiness levels based on already-completed decomissioning work. All listed reactors could be restarted faster and cheaper than new build. https://www.radiantenergygroup.com/reports/restarting-germanys-reactors-feasibility-and-schedule Germany's 9 most-complete reactors displayed at annual energy production scale and approximate restart time needed, in comparison to very large recent German solar and wind projects. https://www.radiantenergygroup.com/reports/restarting-germanys-reactors-feasibility-and-schedule Germany's nuclear reactors and plants mapped and categorized from from fast and cheap to restart, Restart Class 1 and 2, to costly and slow to restart, Restart Class 3 and 4. All Restart Class 1-3 reactors could be restarted faster and cheaper than new build. https://www.radiantenergygroup.com/reports/restarting-germanys-reactors-feasibility-and-schedule Germany's public opinion towards nuclear energy compared to peer countries. https://www.radiantenergygroup.com/reports/restarting-germanys-reactors-feasibility-and-schedule

NEW EPISODE!

We talk with activist Anna Letitia Zivarts about her book, "When Driving Is Not an Option: Steering Away from Car Dependency" which addresses the needs of the one third of people in the U.S. who can not drive and argues for a system that works for all.
