It has been proposed that the area around Fukushima be turned into a large solar energy park, as it is too contaminated to use for most purposes. A mix of solar and thermal solar could generate a significant amount of power spread over an area of >314 square kilometers, i.e. a ten kilometer radius around the existing plant. That might be the best and highest use of the land for the next century.
