- manfredo 6y agoIn terms of raw generation costs, maybe. Nuclear's price is historically a factor of 4 less when built at scale. Building nuclear plants one at time, like the US is doing currently, does not leverage economies of scale. And when taking into account cost of storage, which is necessary when using intermittent sources, the actually cost increases drastically.
