It is believed that the high initial capital cost of nuclear power is less of a hindering factor than the uncertainty about that cost. For nuclear power to regain credibility and enable future NPP construction projects, this unexpected uncertainty, or unknown unknown, needs to be assessed. ...
used in a nuclear power plant is uranium. Uranium is a naturally occurring radioactive element classified as a metal. It's found in many different regions of the planet, primarily Australia, Russia, and Canada. Once mined from the ground, it is processed for use in nuclear power plants. ...

Estimates of costs from plants under construction in Finland and France suggest that each unit may cost as much as Rs. 60,000 crores; at this price, six units will cost Rs. 3.6 lakh crores. We show that the expected starting tariff from these reactors, without including transmission and ...

Financial guarantees change risk and therefore change the cost of financing and the return required by investors. Financial guarantees by the government are a form of subsidy. They are now pervasive in the energy sector and are proposed for new nuclear generating plants. Both the value to recipien...
