    I wonder how this determination is affected by the boondoggle that is the public funding of nuke plant construction with huge overruns paid for by consumers.

      It’s getting ose to the point where even if you are handed one it’s more cost effective to build a wind farm and let it sit.

      A MWh of wind is about $33 and O&M for a MWh of nuclear is about $30.
