Uranium is $128.30/kg
After enrichment, conversion and fabrication that’s $3400/kg for 4.95% fuel.
At 36-45MWd/kg and a net thermal efficiency of 25% or $12.5/MWh up front.
With a 90 month lead time (72 month fuel cycle and 18 months inventory) at 3% this is $16.2/MWh
Reprocessing fuel for breeder reactors was the thing that was banned. Now there have to be all sorts of workarounds that don’t work well.
…banned in a couple of countries for four years.
Why is every single one of these always a trivially verifiable lie?
