So 4x300 MWe for 20.9B CAD or 1.2 GWe for 15.9B USD or 13.2 B/GWe.
Vogtle 3 and 4 are 2x 1117 MWe for 36.8B USD, or 16.5 B/GWe.
So the price, if everything goes according to plan, is only 20% lower than the Vogle boondogle's actual price.
And given's nuclear track record, it's basically guaranteed that the 20.9B is a floor that will be easily surpassed. To say nothing of the extra cost overruns associated with a first of its kind build.

How is this remotely a good idea?
