His comments also contained a message for the Coalition: A Peter Dutton victory at the next federal election will be the start, not the end, of a vigorous nuclear debate.Mr Dutton will need the backing of a hostile Senate and the backing of state governments, at least four of which will be under Labor control.
Those involved in the energy debate will know that the groundswell favouring nuclear does not fall along party lines. Many environmentalists are coming on board as the damage to natural landscapes and biodiversity caused by industrial-scale renewable energy generators becomes more apparent.Mining companies know the potential for using micro and small modular reactors at remote mining sites and the bragging rights that would flow from declaring their mining operations carbon-neutral.
Many who see a future in the unproven technology of green hydrogen are willing to consider nuclear power, knowing that a cheap and steady electricity supply is essential to successfully manufacturing hydrogen.Few could doubt the silent majority's power after the defeat of the voice referendum last year.
While international comparisons like that between France and Germany show us that nuclear power is cheaper in the long run, families are more concerned about paying the bills this quarter than in 2034.
