My understanding of the problem with the nuclear power stations seems to be that they need to urgently get in coolant to the reactors but probably need a power system to do it. The stand-by systems (generator then batteries)which should have kicked in failed because of the extreme circumstances (flooding). How easy would it be to get powerful enough generators to the site/s bearing in mind the present chaos? |
