The EPR was supposed to be the next standardized French design, produced in significant numbers and at low cost. The costs and delays have been so bad with the first few of them that I don't know if it will ever really take off.
So we're back to the question: do you keep pushing forward with more EPRs? How do you keep pushing forward with EPRs if there is a credibility gap on cost and schedule predictions? Or if you choose to standardize on a different reactor than the EPR, how do you estimate its cost and construction schedule?
