The last US nuclear power plant under construction is Georgia Power’s Vogtle property. Once estimated to cost $14 billion, the price tag has climbed past $30 billion, and both units will be more than six years late in coming online

Will TVA be able to build ANYTHING in the next 15 years? Everything from green propaganda to bloated progressive government regulation to loss of American worker skills to massive debt - means the USA has difficulty building any big projects any more.

The Deep Staters in the EPA have rigged years, if not decades, of bureaucratic delays into the system. Even though nuclear power plants can be profitable, by delaying the breakeven point out into decades, the antinuke Deep Staters can discourage utility companies (or their stockholders) from going the nuclear route.
