who point to the still-enormous capital costs
of nuclear. Georgia's Wise, a solid nuclear
advocate, demurred when asked at the Platts
conference whether the commission would
consider additional nuclear units in the Peach
State. He said he would prefer to " digest the
experience " from Vogtle before considering
more nuclear construction.
Morgan Stanley investment banker Anthony
Ianno told the Platts meeting he is
decidedly " bearish " on new U.S. nuclear.
With natural gas prices historically low and
showing no signs of increase, capital costs
of nuclear five times that of gas-fired generation,
and electricity demand increasing
slowly, " It's hard to make a decision to invest
in new nuclear. It's very hard for a CEO to
make that decision. It's easier to say no than
to go forward. "
Wise told the Platts meeting that the overall
rate increase to customers for the two new
nuclear units-probably coming online in
2019 and 2020-would be 7%. Helping keep
that increase low is an $8 billion Department
of Energy loan guarantee, which reduces the
capital cost of the plant.
Does Georgia Power's experience-and
that of SCANA Corp.'s Summer project in
South Carolina, similar to the Vogtle expansion-mean
a rebirth of new U.S. nuclear
plants? Unlikely, according to many analysts,
Nuclear's Fate Depends on Its
Nation State
The non-U.S. experience with nuclear power
is more complex. A key to whether a country
will build new nuclear capacity is often a
matter of who will finance extremely expensive
plants, under what conditions. Most of
the markets, particularly those dominated by
state-owned utilities, are far from transparPlatts
