We need a Plan B for Wylfa

It seems Plaid, may not to have to worry about  splits in the Party over Wylfa B as the chances  of a new Nuclear power station being built  on  Ynys.Môn (Anglesey) diminishes .
The BBC. reports that the leading French-Chinese consortium has dropped its bid to build an £8bn nuclear power station on Anglesey.

They report that...

The Horizon project to build new reactors at Wylfa and Oldbury, Gloucestershire, was put up for sale by German-owned E.ON and RWE in March.Areva and the Guangdong Nuclear Power Corporation Holding (CGNPC) did not submit a bid by Friday's deadline, saying their interest was "suspended".Two other companies were thought to be interested in taking over the project.The American power giant Westinghouse and the US-Japanese partnership GE Hitachi were also predicted to submit bids.

Hundreds of problems have been found at European nuclear plants that would cost 25bn euros (£20bn) to fix, says a leaked draft report.

The final report is to be published on Thursday. The draft says nearly all the EU's 143 nuclear plants need improving.

Whatever you views on Nuclear Power (and I'm against) It does look that the Wylfa B project is doomed .

Would it nor be better then to divert the energy and expense promoting something that may well not happen to creating real and immediate jobs on the island?

Lets face it most of those who will be building the reactor will come from outside the North Wales and it would not be till the building is complete that local opportunities will occur.

Since  NDA announced that the existing station would be shut down in 2010 because operation beyond then would be uneconomic . A new station may not even be built  before the current one closes.

It time that the powers that be face up to the fact that there probably not going to be a Wylfa B and come up with an alternative to a Nuclear Station .Or are we going to waste our efforts and money on supporting (or yes opposing) a project that seems domed for at least two decades?
