Original Note:
The cited Dept. of Energy (US) report explains [p.37] how the LCOE figure is not an accurate comparison of the economic viability of nuclear (or renewable) energy. LCOE does not factor system interconnection, transmission, firming costs, or lifespan value. https://liftoff.energy.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/LIFTOFF_DOE_AdvNuclear-vX7.pdf
