High construction costs are the main reason nuclear power is not used more widely.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
3 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that high construction costs are the main reason nuclear power is not used more widely?

Unclear. Two peer-reviewed sources indicate that construction costs are a significant factor in nuclear power's economic competitiveness, but none of the retrieved items establishes that high construction costs are the main reason nuclear power is not used more widely.
