Constellation described the agreement with Microsoft as the largest power purchase agreement that the nuclear plant operator has ever signed.

Three Mile Island was the worst nuclear accident in US history. Was mainly caused by poor design of human feedback systems which caused operational confusion and lead to a catastrophic failure.

    Being a dictatorship does not mean you don’t care what the people think if it’s not about taking away something substantial and potentially excusable from the people. Plus, there’s sample size: there are a lot less dictatorships with the capability to build nuclear reactors than there are democracies with the same capabilities.

    Even then, China generates the world’s third most power from nuclear, being only a bit less than half of the US’s output. The percentage is much lower because of just how much the nation depends on coal power.
