Nuclear power costs compared to conventional stations
Not yet, not yet then estimated, but it was certain that a higher rate of depreciation would have to be allowed. Total costs, apart from fuel, were expected to be methods which had been £20 a billowatk a year, twice, the conventional cost. It would be necessary to achieve a nuclear cost less than that of oil or coal if overall costs were to approach those of a conventional station.
