New reactors a path to energy relapse, not to solutions

In this mention

Sara Barczak of the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy argues that TVA's proposed nuclear reactor expansion at Bellefonte in Alabama represents a costly mistake that will worsen water scarcity during droughts, increase electricity costs for ratepayers, and fail to meaningfully address climate change. She contends that nuclear power's massive water consumption, unresolved waste disposal, and economic overruns make it an inferior solution compared to renewable energy alternatives.
