Worked for Arizona Public Service who operates Palo Verde.
I was hired as a Nuclear Construction Engineer, then, Senior Maintenance Training Instructor and Deputy Fire Chief.
Palo Verde is one of the largest power producing plants in the U.S.
Has won the Thomas Edison award for highest generating capacity and reliability 13 times.
We re 45 miles west of Phoenix on I-10 six miles south of I-10 on Wintersburg Road.
If you get a chance, drop by the visitors center to learn all about this safe and modern plant.

@Mr. Ness,

@Mr. Ness,

You obviously don't realize how many panels it would take to generate the amount of electricity Palo Verde provides to Arizona, New Mexico, S.W. Texas, and Southern California. There must be several back-ups for the solution of no water source. Actually, Palo Verde is safer from a security threat due to being away from water sources.

Despite what people say about renewables, nuclear is the way to go. Solar and wind replace and destroy the environment they are meant to save. I for one do not want nature replaced by solar and wind farms. Nuclear is by far the safest energy source with the smallest carbon footprint(yes less than solar and wind) and it is also has the smallest geographic footprint along with the highest energy density. Nuclear, geothermal, hydroelectric, with some solar to handle the daytime energy demands around air conditioning and industrial needs with a few natural gas stations to stabilize the grid and handle emergency conditions is the best solution to the energy problem today. It may not be perfect but until other technologies mature it's the way to go. Palo verde is a safe place and provides needed power to the whole southwest region.

This nuclear plant is 50 miles from Phoenix! No water source nearby if this thing cracks everybody's doomed, all it takes is one little earthquake.. look at the irregular weather patterns. Shut it down and GO SOLAR. Solar's finally cost effective and contributes to the end of the corrupt hurding sheeple.

The risk of nuclear meltdown is often overblown. Coal causes much more health damage from simply operating. The smoke from coal in fact contains large amounts of radioactive elements, so the coal plants we have spreads much more radiation than one nuclear meltdown once in a while.

The uranium rods are a nice snack, and the blue water has some extraordinary taste! I only managed to get through my appetizer before the manager started to threaten me with a gun when I tried to go in for more. I would recommend to any fine diner but only if that manager left.

I've been living here for a few years because I am homeless. This is the best place I have ever lived. I did grow an extra arm and I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Also I can see through walls now which is pretty cool. Plenty of food and water, but I'm pretty sure thats what gave me stage 3 cancer. Still a great place to live, 5 stars.
