A total disconnect from reality. In reality a new reactor here in Europe costs about 5 billion Euros a piece.
Nobody is wanting to finance a nuclear reactor. They even don't need to be insured, since no insurance company would provide insurance for a nuclear reactor.
The nuclear reactors all need huge government subsidies or need to be fully financed by the government.
In the US almost nobody wants to finance a nuclear reactor, even though the government runs around with lots of money for those.
In France for example the nuclear industry is a fully government run system. Socialism at work.
Firstly I didn't ask for citation, I asked for examples.
Secondly, I gave my opinion which I think is based on accepted facts, if you insist on citations you can find them on Wikipedia. You just gave a statement, wrote your proposition on that statement, with nothing to back it up.
Yeah, same as you. I'd debate your unsupported statement about cost efficiency. See my post below about the bids for Ontario nuclear expansion two years ago.

I think the major advantage of nuclear is its cost efficiency and low pollution.

If you insist on a cited post, lead by example.

This chart is on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Nuke,_coal,_gas_generating...
But that's sidetracking, instead of ridiculous citation wars, what I was really asking for was some examples of:
'Renewables can be vastly improved, several advances have already been made just not fully capitalized on'
