That'd be fine and probably done but we haven't made any in almost 40 Yrs. It's time.
And who pays for those? Unlike refineries (another comically under developed resource) we can't pin those costs on petro chemical corporations.

With decreasing taxes and the fantasy of clean coal, I wouldn't stay up late waiting on magical nuclear power plants to receive funding.
