I must say I have to question their siting. I can’t believe they were built so close to the coast.
You know, it is interesting because I was looking at the site via the news, and the site seems to be on a bluff. I think the damage was could have been caused by the earthquake rather than the tsunami. Either way, the pebble bed system would have eliminated the problem. I think Japan probably uses pebble bed reactors, but I think this is probably an older reactor.

Power plants need a lot of water. Many, if not most, reactors are built on coasts.
well you know they do need water for cooling
