% SPEAKER NOTES:
|
|
% The Economic Reality:
|
|
% - Current requirement: 2+ ROs + 1+ SRO per unit
|
|
% - Training: up to 6 years
|
|
% - SMRs have same overhead but lower output
|
|
% - Result: Higher $/MW O&M costs threaten viability
|
|
%
|
|
% The Market Opportunity:
|
|
% - Datacenter demand: 1,050 TWh annually by 2030
|
|
% - Nuclear O&M: 23-30% of levelized cost ($88.24/MWh)
|
|
% - Annual O&M for datacenter demand alone: $21-28 billion
