In this paper out in @nature.com, we documented a surprising trend in nuclear power plant construction costs: China and South Korea showed declines in the cost over time, showing potential for breaking the 'cost curse' of nuclear power.

Out today in @nature.com with Shangwei Liu, Gang He, and Minghao Qin our paper on nuclear power construction and (early) plant lifetime operation costs.
