I still think that the issues around the disposal of the waste & local risks, including fire, quake, tsunami, volcano would add an unnecessary risk given the increasing capability of renewable generation & grid level power storage.

Upgrading the nationwide electric grid network to enable the roll out wind & solar generation from large scale to residential, enabling smart meter/controllers at individual business/residential for local battery/E-vehicle charging/local use & feeding back energy to neighbourhood.

AND doing so in a federated manner to allow real multiple competition solution & supply providers.
