What is the estimated cost to nuclear clean up?

The estimated cost for nuclear cleanup varies widely depending on the site and extent of contamination, but it can reach into the billions of dollars. For example, the cleanup of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in Japan is projected to cost over $200 billion. In the United States, the cleanup of the Hanford Site in Washington has an estimated cost of around $100 billion. Overall, costs can range from several million to tens of billions per site, influenced by regulatory requirements and the complexity of the cleanup process.
