Comment on Anon finds a plot hole
brotundspiele@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoWhich is still not operational, just like the dozens of other potential storages, we started building just to find out last minute that they are not suitable. Or even better, those we started using just to find out they were not suitable to begin with later. I’m curious to read how many billions it will cost to retreive the waste from Onkalo in 30 years when we’ve learnt that it’s also not safe for the next million years.

“not operational” as in “construction is not complete”, sure, but they were able to start testing at that facility in 2024, and it will be complete and ready for full operational use in 2026. Just because other storage facilities didn’t work out in the past doesn’t mean new ones are doomed as well. This project has been in development for a few decades now, and they’re learning from all those previous mistakes.
