Question: how much does it cost to run a nuclear power plant?
Answer: For nuclear power (2200 MWe plant), capital cost including financing (at a high discount rate) ranged from $6500 to $12,250 per kilowatt, and the LCOE accordingly varied from $112 to $189/MWh. For a 600 MWe coal plant the capital cost ranged from $3000 to $8400/kW, giving a LCOE of $60 to $143/MWh.
