Stance: PRO
Aspect: cost-effective
But in terms of cost per kilowatt-hour generated , nuclear power is already competitive with natural gas for baseload capacity , and new reactors could make them even safer and more efficient at low costs while also making them much less costly over their entire life cycle because of reduced waste production and increased efficiency improvements through time As noted above , there are many ways to improve reactor safety without increasing construction times and escalating costs .
