    Yeah, after literally bankrupting Westinghouse and costing us Georgians billions of dollars. I’m all for more nuclear power but this project was a colossal shitshow.

    Georgia also has some shiny new solar factories so I’m interested to see how deep into renewables we can get in the next decade.
