"
Globally, nuclear power is set to
face increasing challenges due to its inability to compete with other
energy sources in pricing. Another factor is how to manage the rising
volumes of spent nuclear fuel in the absence of permanent disposal
facilities. More fundamentally, without a breakthrough in fusion energy
or greater commercial advances in the area that the U.S. has strived to
block — breeder (and thorium) reactors — nuclear power is in no position
to lead the world out of the fossil fuel age."
