27. When you include construction and financing, nuclear is much more expensive
Nuclear power plants don't appear out of thin air, building them is a long and expensive process which has to be paid for, when those costs are included in the per kilowatt-hour cost, nuclear is much more expensive than wind or coal. And ten years from now, it will be more expensive than solar PV, too.
