Or seven times the capacity of the National Electricity Market that has been built over the past 24 years." from the AFR (headline to google - jim-chalmers-rips-up-paul-keating-s-economic-playbook-20240510-p5jcjw)

So since "We know exactly how much renewable energy costs. There's plenty of info on that .", you can surely tell us how much this is all going to cost ...... yeah, didn't think so

p.s you really should learn to read, i said we should be having a proper discussion about the costs of both renewables and nuclear options, not some dummy spit from a nutty left wing wind tower humper called acorn

You know we live on the driest and sunniest country in the world dont you...a nuclear reactor has to run at 60% capacity...cannot be turned off...and uses lots of water...it wasnt that long ago much of the eastern Australia was on strict water restrictions...to show how much thought they have put into it barnaby in new England and Littleproud in cental Queensland put thier hands up to have one....clearly they had no idea what having a reactor in thier electorate would mean
