I agree with your analysis but my question is why nuclear energy has been so unsuccessful in the US and UK but seems to be doing fine in France and South Korea?

My theory is that the state needs to be involved in a way that the US and the UK are not willing to be.

Complete speculation on my part: Maybe economies of scale are an issue? The more reactors you built the lower the cost?

Would like to know your thoughts on why some countries seem to be better at having a successful nuclear industry.

The illegal war against the Ukraine and attacks on energy infrastructure demonstrate another serious concern for nuclear power.
