You can’t build a nuclear reactor in less than 20 years in the United States. Period.

Just ask Georgia Power and South Carolina Electric and Gas.

True for grid-interconnected. Portable self consumption generation has always been a bit of a hot potato. Who permits it? Who inspects it? Who's the AHJ? Point being, they very well may not be beholden to the current issues, and certainly won't have the NIMBY attacks that cause so many delays. But maybe the feds lock it down and its worse (probable scenario). We'll see.

It started generating electricity last year. Confirmed.
