Abstract

Post-Fukushima, the reality the nuclear industry may have to face is one that has been around since Three Mile Island – that designing a PWR or BWR that can survive a loss of coolant and loss of site power and still be economic is simply not feasible. Fukushima may therefore mark the effective end of the nuclear renaissance in the West, while questions of cost and technology will continue to dog nuclear optimism elsewhere.
