Show me the error!
"Assume a new nuclear plant costs $3,000,000,000 to build or 7,959 new nuclear plants in 10 years"
There is the error. It's bolded and underlined.
Proof to me the ERROR...who in the hell are you to criticize numbers that have been substantiated?
FACTS with LINKS not guesses!
In 2022, about
4,243 billion kilowatthours (kWh) (or about 4.24 trillion kWh) of electricity were generated at utility-scale electricity generation facilities in the United States. About 60% of this electricity generation was from fossil fuels—coal, natural gas, petroleum, and other gases. About 18% was from nuclear energy, and about 22% was from renewable energy sources.
Total power plants in the USA today: 11,000
Across the United States, over 11,000 utility-scale power plants deliver electricity to the nation's electric power grid.

.
How many kWh generated per plant per year: 4,243,000,000,000 kWh divided by 11,000 EQUALS 385,727,272 kWh total per year.
Biden's guarantee to "rid fossil fuels" means 2,544,000,000,000 of electricity destroyed by Biden...AND 526,360,300,580 Additional kWh from EVs.
A total of 3,070,360,300,580 kWh coming from somewhere!
Somewhere at 385,727,272 kWh per each power plant, OR 7,959 new power plants built!
Just a reminder..a new nuclear power plant costs about "takes 10 years to plan, secure land, meet regulations and build a nuclear plant.
Progress Energy has projected a cost with financing costs for 2 plants at about $13-14 billion.
Assume a new nuclear plant costs $3,000,000,000 to build or 7,959 new nuclear plants in 10 years at a cost of: $23,877,000,000,000 !
Do the math!
Biden guarantees to destroy 2,544,000,000,000 of electricity generated by 6,595 fossil fueled power plants by 2050!
How much electricity does a power plant generate?
Dummy can you not do the simple math:
Each of the 11,000 power plants...
Background information on the Power Sector of the United States as it relates to the power sector approach.
www.epa.gov
generate 4,243,000,000,000 kWh per year. Divide 4,243,000,000,000 by 11,000 power plants..EQUALS...
385,727,272 kWh
NOW dummy divide total Additional EV electricity and Biden's destruction of OR 3,070,360,300,580 kW by 385,727,272 kWh
What do you get?: ----- 7,959 new power plants ! if you build a new nuclear power plant costs about $3 billion... times 7959 or $23 Trillion!
Simple math and you still don't get it!
