They had about 8y per units, 12 total. Each unit 1400MW. That's not fast compared to chinese deployments, french messmer ones and even more so-japanese abwr

But it exemplifies what you can do in a series build- you start a new unit 1y after prev one and continue this till you are done. But this requires tons of effort and maybe govt intervention similar to messmer

The idea of adding 300GW nuclear in USA in 25 years.. if you can actually sustain 1GW deployed at the end of each year with Team-X.. need twelve such teams to get 300 in 25. Why I think that's not fast: global PV industry adds ~1GW in less than a week (counting TWh added, not nameplate).

300gw is unrealistic imo Solar is nice and should be added too, but isn't firm. There's a reason big tech hopes nuclear works- buying carbon credits like before becomes challenging since amount of firm power is limited

When the rate of new TWh being added from nuclear grows, it should start to show up on the chart. In the meantime there is no shortage of daytime combustion to neutralize.

That's a different thing. Twh will not change much if peak demand grows by some hours but you still need to cover it

It’s a chart of what got built in 2024.
