07 Jul Energy Density and Human Dignity on ABC Illawarra
Energy is the lifeblood of our society.
It’s tied to the cost of our food, clothing, housing, healthcare and the inventions of our modern societies. The less it costs and the fewer resources it consumes, the more society flourishes
In this interview with Nick Rheinberger on ABC Illawarra we discuss my recent essay on Energy and Human Dignity. You can listen to the interview here

Thanks for your input.
As you’ll note on our website we are great fans of the BWRX 300.
I think however your numbers are a bit optimistic
GE-H were anticipating a year or so ago that the plant would have an all up energy cost of circa US$45/MWh for an Nth of a kind in the USA
We are trying to get numbers for deployment in Australia and that needs to also take into account the enabling infrastructure, shipping and difficult access as well as things like large cranes
