Andrew Cuomo’s successful quest to shut down the Indian Point nuclear plant spiked electricity costs and dirtied the energy grid of the city he’s now running to lead.

I’m sorry do you not remember 3 mile island or Fukushima or Chernobyl? It’s pretty dirty there. Nuclear is too dangerous and the potential catastrophic consequences of even a small accident make it not worth the risk, plus it’s not even financially viable w/o billions in subsidies for each plant

Indian Point was a nuclear power plant sitting atop a known earthquake fault line. More than 30 million people live downwind of Indian Point. The risk of catastrophe was enormous. "New York has a goal to achieve 70% renewable energy by 2030 and a 100% zero-emission electricity grid by 2040."

And NO, since the river and fish were affected in that area, you don’t get to call it “clean” energy

Not a limit, just a period. And it was 40 years. Then a renewal of a decade or 2. Today reactor get license periods that take to 80 years, very likely some will get to 100. I'm sry your stuck in the anti-nuclear talking points

Indian Pt was not built “today”. It was built to the specifications of a plant to be decommissioned in 40 years. It was built in an active earthquake zone that is a confluence of many fault lines including one that had 4.1 mag quake in the eighties. It is also in a highly populated area that would…

No that's not how the license works. And reactors have upgrades trough there lifetime A quake is not an un- anticipated point. It is fearmongering you do imho. A shame you spend your energy on negativity.

AND The processing water for the entire plant was pumped into the Hudson on a 24/7 basis, destroying the ecosysyem and potentially harming everyone coming in contact with the river.

Yes, besides the temperature change, fish fry were killed by impingement as they got sucked through the pipes. The facility was conceived when the Hudson was considered a "dead river", so at first this was no concern.

It's not nonsense. The plant was operational long past the time it was supposed to be decommissioned. The other problem is the population living in the area had increased to a size that never could be evacuated.

No, in the USA reactors simply all got a first license of 40yrs. After that a ten or twenty Yr renewal is being licensed. Upgrades are installed etc. Reactors are getting this towards 80 years in total now.

First years in a water basin. After that in the USA there stored dry cask, rated to keep them for over a century. While politician can argue about nimby issues. There is one permanent storage facility, I think that is only for military sources. Ps: Finland has a permant site for commercial fuel.
