In the context of CO2 emissions, money doesn't matter, only resources and physical units do.

  Money matters in that you can spend it building and operating nukes, or building renewables. You can't spend the same dollar on both, but the dollar spent on renewables gets you more kW than the same dollar spent on nukes. We will need every non-carbon kW we can muster.

    what I meant is that you cannot only consider money when making choices about energy, you need to consider materials and their CO2 footprint. prices change, physical units don't.

      Zero CO2 footprint is hard to beat.
