Nice framing, but that's a whopping 1.2 cents in financial aid per kWh.
Sounds like great deal actually.
Of course it's a good deal - for the companies involved. They get to socialize the costs, while privatizing the profits.
The rest of us pay for this, and get a legacy of radioactive waste, and a delay in the inevitable transition to renewable power.
For anyone paying attention, this is just one more example of how the nuclear industry has failed economically.
