renewables are already curtailed and market is still not killed. Nuclear is very expensive if you build it in 20y.

H2 per lazard even at 25%mix is as bas as vogtle in terms of lcoe. And thats with cheap us gas for the rest 75%



1. LCOE is not the appropriate metric, especially when you have intermittent renewables in the mix.

2. Lazard themselves say that their LCOE numbers for nuclear are not indicative.

I know, full system lcoe must be considered with all bells and whistles. I'm comparing lcoe of worst nuclear project in us vs lcoe of hydrogen peakers
