This guy is a boss on this topic. He's a current lib, but former progressive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciStnd9Y2ak

Hint: The main solution to climate change by FAR is nuclear energy, which libs paradoxically always oppose.

I'm not sure that's paradoxical, I've met plenty of libs who were in favor of a nuclear reactor for power generation as long as it's not built down the street from them

As far as "old" fission tech, the Palo Verde reactor is about as perfect a situation as it could get - 40 miles from Phoenix, reactors are cooled entirely by waste water from said Phoenix metropolitan area.

First and only of a kind in the world, if I recall.

Contrast that with the boondoggle that is the Ivanpah solar generation plant, and the solution is clear.

Is intel’s factory drawing power from that reactor? I’m curious because we have new semiconductor manufacturing in a state wi th no water (tons of water required for semiconductor manufacturing)

Unsure, but they have a nice website [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'll dig around a bit later

EDIT for what it's worth, its output is~32,000 GWh annually - that's more than thirty-seven (37) times the capacity of the Ivanpah facility ~850 KWh) on the CA/NV border , on around the same footprint (~4,500 - 5,000 acres) of pristine Mojave desert they wrecked and now blind everyone driving the 15.. oh and check out this CRAZY temperature inversion that I recorded a couple years ago, causing a nice dust storm- not to mention the cooked birds and 500,000,000 cu ft of natural gas it consumes just to start the turbines in the morning lol
