They have all the those nuke plants just sitting there. The bills have to be paid. Interest and principal are being paid out. Employees paid. There is nothing coming in.

The fuel pools will need lots of maintenance. Everything has to be kept up or it will blow sky high.

The owners will go broke in a few years if no electricity is produced. Them going broke will drag the Japanese economy into the toilet, if it hasn't already.
