Maybe, but I would have thought that would have either factored that into the quoted cost estimates, or that they would have said something like "and similar future plants would cost X". (where X is lower).
- Bluestrike2 10y agoThose cost savings won't be immediate, and will likely have to wait until production facilities are expanded once there are sufficient orders to warrant it. And not just immediate orders, but ones for a few years out as well.
- privong 10y agoSure, but surely they can make some sort of estimates, depending on quantities, typical economies of scale, etc. Of course, I don't know accurate they'd be in the end, but it shows they've thought about it in more detail than "oh yeah, it'll totally be cheaper later on."
