Khashayer, there's a reason why a combined cycle combustion turbine power plants have taken the lead. They run on natural gas which Iran has in tremendous quantities. They produce little pollution. They take about two years to start producing electricty after breaking ground. They also require a much smaller staff than a nuke plant. Typically less than 10 people.
Add to that a combustion turbine can be started remotely when needed for added power and it can operated as a base load plant. A nuke can't be turned off and on. It must be run as base load plant. Each start and shutdown decreases the life of a reactor vessel.
Combustion turbines are also much cheaper to build. All of the components are prepackaged. Once the structure is built the packages are installed. Then the electrical, piping and instrumentation is connected and it's done. You also don't have the extensive start-up testing required for a nuke plant which can take years.

How many of these do we have operating in the U.S.?
