The other one is Barsebäck (showed in the begining and at maintanance and fuel change) was closed by the government due to a political decision to close down all the power plants in the country without any technical reasons.

because communist governments are just as bad as other types about admitting problems, they knew some of the major faults beforehand and once the government had no choice but to let them investigate flaws in their design further after the accident they were able to develop modifications and strict operating guidelines to ensure the accident could not reoccur at all or only if the staff were as reckless as those handling that reactor during the unapproved, poorly supervised test they were running.

RBMKs, for all there faults, the remaining operating reactions have run safely and without major incident. After Chernobyl, all rbmk reactors were modified for increased safety measures. We won’t build anymore of them, but an accident like Chernobyl will never happen again. You would have to disable every safety system and even then, without the graphite tipped control rods, it’s hard to say if the power spike that was caused by the negative void coefficient would be great enough to cause such an explosion of steam pressure in the modified reactors.

@Bulging Battery -- The U.S. has 6 in the pipeline -- until last week. 4 have been cancelled because they are years behind schedule start-up, over $10 billion over budget in each case, and this is in part due to the "new" reactor design -- the Westinghouse AP1000 -- being more complicated and difficult to construct than thought, a factor that bankrupted Westinghouse and caused its parent company Toshiba to announce a $6 billion write-down (loss) last December, and an announcement that Westinghouse would pull out of the reactor construction business. The other 2 reactors being built in Georgia were supposed to open last year and cost $14 billion. The builders recently told regulators that they would not be complete until around 2023 and cost as much as $27 billion. Still want to build new nukes?? $28 billion buys a lot of solar and wind that is ready TODAY, and doesn't produce long-lived, hazardous high-level radioactive waste; nor do wind turbines melt down during tsunamis, or maybe even Category 4 hurricanes.

Why not just tear down old plant and put in a updated plant in its place? Nuclear power is the future weather they want to admit it or not. The trend is to use solar but the batteries are very toxic and so is the process to make solar panels. Not to mention the toxic waste the produce in mining the products to make the panels. Solar panel production causes more green house gases than the panel can save in its life span. Companies are filling there pockets with money getting everyone to buy in on the solar dream.Solar panels will begin to take up farm land. With the earths population growing we will have to make a choice between eating or making power. Not to mention the heating of the atmosphere caused from reflecting it back into the atmosphere. As of now solar farms are powered at night with natural gas steam turbines. Since there is no way to store energy. it will be sometime before that solar energy can be stored for night time use. In the mean time we are increasing our carbon foot print.

Explosions are quite rare for nuclear power plants and only happens to those of which that don't plan for worst case scenarios. Fukushima's owners chose to ignore a warning 3 years early that there tsunami defenses would not be effective which eventually lead to the lose of the diesel generators which could've prevented the accidents, accidents like Chernobyl happened because the people who made it didn't want to admit there own flaws even when a similar incident happened before at another nuclear power plant with the same design. Now days we have much safer nuclear power plants which work much better, also almost all spent fuel depending on the plant can be stored on site for the plants life time and company's are looking into newer reactor types like WAMSR which spent fuel is contaminated for only about 300 years and not thousands. There's also SMR which can use spent fuel and finish it up. People deserve to know the truth about nuclear power plants and what they are capable of doing to fix climate change, and the usage of fossil fuels, but many people also forget that you will still need a power plant which can very its output for demand which nuclear power plants aren't good at doing at the current day.
