If new projects get ordered I'm quite confident costs will move closer to the actual bill of materials, per unit.
- maigret 2y agoThere are other EPR projects abroad and most did overshoot costs by more than 5 to $10B and having a decade delay. Meanwhile renewable and storage keep getting cheaper and better at massive speed. Even France adds much more renewable than nuclear capacity right now. Which is a pragmatic approach... Stay skilled in nuclear and keep minimum investment to keep the industry alive but invest mostly in renewable.
