Very soon. If we change the absolute clown decision under the Carter administration to not reuse nuclear waste we can just use the nuclear waste we’ve already built up, never burn another hydrocarbon, and never install a single additional solar panel (cause why not), and power the US for 150 years with relatively little mining.
Energy is solved. But neither party wants it to be solved. They want a problem they can have political gainsmanship over. Whether it is the Rs wanting wars to support a petro-dollar as an excuse to give their friends in the defense world money, or the Ds wanting tax funded projects for their donors. An actual solution offers no party any advantage over the current problem.
Most waste isn’t spent fuel, it’s tools and clothes and PPE and steel and other bits that have been directly exposed to radiation long enough to become radioactive.

I never claimed otherwise.
