The operating costs of Nuclear are minimal, the problem is planning, building, regulating, decommissioning them. On that basis, modular nuclear reactors seem to make the most sense. Rolls Royce in the UK looks to be onto a winner with their 470mw SMR: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_small_modular_reactor_designs#Rolls-Royce_SMR https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_small_modular_reactor_... 2 years site prep, 2 years building the unit. £1.8 billion per unit. They could be mass produced with the right investment. Operate them for 60 years each, take out the remaining fuel, and just leave the rest of the power plant in the ground forever. We should be mass producing these units right now and installing them across the EU, UK, USA, Australia. We could be building 100 a year with the right investment.
