You keep changing your story, mfckrz.

30% load factor is hardly a "intended operational target". That's a highly inefficient and unstable nuclear reactor.

Btw, your EROI/EPR is highly biased and cherry-picked, nuclear EROI goes as low as 10 if you count the cost of nuclear accidents and nuclear wastes. With the latest technologies, wind goes as high as 54 and solar as high as 21.

But it doesn't matter, because the cost of wind has dropped to 2c/KWh, from 7c/KWh in 2009 in the US.

It's called technological advancement, mfckrz. The cost of wind mills and solar panels have dropped significantly in the last decade.
