Mike Holland shares his extensive research and reading in analysing the nuclear energy policy which is
the key policy of the Liberal National Coalition ahead of the upcoming election. Mike Holland's summary is under this plan we won't be generating any nuclear power before 2040. By 2040 coal fired power stations will be shut down and we will be using cheaper wind and solar generated power. Mike makes the case that from reactors around the world it is economically irresponsible to go down this path.
