With such huge stores of cheap natural gas available, there is absolutely no reason that Texas should operate this obsolete and expensive source of electricity generation. Tear them down.

Each fuel source has its disadvantages.
For natural gas, it’s that you can’t store it at the plant site; making electricty supply immediately vulnerable to pipeline failure.

Iowa State used to have a nuclear engineering program. It got canceled years ago because of lack of demand outside the Navy.
There are few plants being built, and many shutting down. Japan's fun has convinced many countries that a nuke plant is to risky.
