For sure each approach has it's positives and negatives - for me the main problem with a big plant is the time to build. I mean s.22a needs to be repealed before the red tape can even get started... then from breaking down to connection to grid is likely 8-10 years.

With SMRs we'll possibly be able to buy them off the line by the time legislation is changed and approvals obtained...
Commitment to Nuclear power will only change when the people demand it. Our politicians are too insular and self serving to attempt anything requiring vision and courage. Our population demographic is changing quickly with the huge influx of immigrants from modern nuclear economies like China, India, UK and South Africa so one can hope that modern ideas follow them.

The best case has been for a plant in SA to be linked to a large desalination plant. The scheme will provide both electricity for the national grid and water for SA cities and interior. This in turn increases agricultural opportunities in SA and reduces the stress on our overburdened Murray- Darling system.

Amen - I mean the Libs are making nuclear noises but they're likely gone for 8 years come May.. if we could get The Greens seeing sense it might push the ALP to have some backbone on the issue.

Sadly it'll probably take more destructive climate events for any real change to happen.
