My bet is that Turkish government (which is one person) didn’t care about safety percussions and save costs and Japan doesn’t want to be part of that waiting to happen disaster. Japanese have a conscious. Not everything is money.

Have you even read the article?

mate, they literally explain why directly under the title of the article.

"Post-Fukushima safety measures doubled costs for Mitsubishi and partners"

It was too expensive for Japanese companies due to the new restrictions made by the Japanese government.

Those restrictions are necessary.

[/Quote]Mitsubishi Heavy submitted the revised cost estimate to the Turkish government in a late-July report. Though the company worked to rethink the overall costs, apparently no compromise could be reached with the Turkish government on financing terms, as well as prices for the electricity generated by the plant.
They literally asked for a price hike for already very high price per watt. Even though I truly want Turkey to utilize nuclear power.

Good, now instead of wasting tens of billions on a nuclear power plant Turkey should invest it in renewable energy and energy efficiency.

I’m afraid that will not happen knowing Erdogan. He will continue with his shills without Japan. This is going to be a disaster. If I was living in that region I would leave once the plant is there.

I see nothing to be afraid of. The worst that can eventual happen is hamsis big like sharks, Rize tea with leafs like a Banana tree or hazelnuts big like my fists. Those are economical opportunities. :D

Instead of wasting billions in nuclear plants, Turkey should invest more in Solar power and MSR (thorium/molten salt reactor).

It's estimated that 1 ton Thorium contains the same amount of energy as 200 tons Uranium.

And as we know Turkey has huge Thorium reserves.

Solar energy is still too expensive. China, USA, Germany and all other big ecenomies are mostly dependant on nuclear plants.
No doubt Turkey needs nuclear power but with the present government seems complicated to say the least.

Thorium FBRs are still in testing phases. We are in the final stages of testing here before they can be deemed safe to operate.

The problem with renewable energy is that its supply is volatile. Sunlight is not always strong and the storage technology is not exactly that advance or cheap to justify completely depending on it; unless you are Denmark where their windmills generate round the year power due to their location and climatic condition there.

We should build our own nuclear plant.

Most of the guys here just post for the sake of posting without having any actual knowledge on the subject. You don't need to answer them.
