The main points are:
- There is insufficient scrutiny of the claims of those proposing new nuclear power plants
- The true costs of building these power plants are not properly examined
- The technology is new, and the claimed power outputs are for plants that have not been built or tested
- Hydrogen technology is likely to come on stream faster than the new nuclear plants can be built.
