That’s how long they actually end up taking to build.
Look up the project history of your local NPP and see how long it was from planning approval to putting power on the grid.
Where is steam?
What about livestock, like a horse turning a mill?
And wind and hydro.
If you start building a new nuclear plant today, it’ll start generating power around the year 2045, by which time renewables with storage will have gotten even cheaper.
Bet you the public will be on the hook to pay for that white elephant because utility companies privatize profits and socialize losses.
I don’t get it, is it some sort of ‘gadfly’ joke?
Financially, no.
With babysitting? Absolutely.
