Focusing on the complex debate surrounding nuclear power in Sweden, the book explores the implications of a 1980 referendum that called for its phaseout. Renowned economist William Nordhaus evaluates new technological, environmental, and economic developments since then, questioning whether Sweden should reconsider its stance. He analyzes the potential impacts of deregulation, climate change efforts, and economic shifts on energy policy. By examining the costs and benefits of eliminating nuclear power, the work provides a framework for addressing broader energy and environmental challenges faced by nations today.
