That's a problem of our own making, and we could revert. The timelines are driven by permitting (both at the local level and at the NRC) and the customization of each reactor. We desperately need reactors to roll off of an assembly line to drive down physical costs. And we also desperately need to trim down the regulatory burden. Together, those changes would dramatically speed up deployment and cut costs.
