The long read: Building Britain’s first new nuclear reactor since 1995 will cost twice as much as the 2012 Olympics – and by the time it is finished, nuclear power could be a thing of the past. How could the government strike such a bad deal?
note: currently the electricity price in the UK has risen massively, which makes this project a little less absurd in cost, but I guess the high prices should be somewhat temporary, until the gas situation is figured out.
Still, renewables are still built at half this strike price.
