31. There is no obvious struggle in Maine about nuclear power

Edited on Mon Aug-28-06 03:52 PM by jpak

There might be controversy about building wind farms in the western mountains, but none about building new nuclear power plants there.

It ain't gonna happen.

On edit: that "McMansion" is 2900 sq ft - not 4000 - when one actually reads what's posted on that website, one might see this.

It cost $325,000 to build in 1995 (without any federal or state tax credits or rebates).

The PV and solar hot water systems were ~15% of the total cost of the house.

And it works, in Maine, in the winter.
