Just noodling some numbers here

Good planning estimate of a 1 GW capacity nuclear reactor in Australia is $20B. (CSIRO would suggest $17ish, Vogtle and Hinkley (forecast) are in that range).

(The 7 proposed by the Liberal party under Peter Dutton are all likely to be in that range - as all will be at a different site, each will effectively be the first-of-a-kind.)

Focussing on one for now though. 1/n
