Bill Gates on nuclear energy, investing billions, costs, risks & more

Bill Gates has expressed his commitment to investing "billions more" into new-generation nuclear power plants, despite the challenges and criticisms associated with the technology. He emphasized the need for global collaboration and scaling of projects to drive down costs. Gates also discussed the safety features of his TerraPower nuclear plant in Wyoming, stating that nuclear power has a good track record despite past incidents. He believes that working with countries like France, the UK, Japan, and South Korea can demonstrate the potential of next-generation nuclear power and lead to the reconsideration of nuclear energy in countries like Germany. Gates aims to find energy sources with zero emissions and lower costs than coal, and he sees innovation as the key to driving profitability in the sector.
