It is not feasible or logical for this country to support the costs of a nuclear power plant and all its baggage. A 1,000 MW nuclear plant would cost between $6 billion and $10 billion. A 1,000 MW wind farm costs between $1.6 billion - $1.75 billion.
Nuclear power plant in a country that is not known for construction quality and quite a few tremors each year ? then there's the question of storage of nuclear waste _securely_ too. I dont think the US will allow this
