Molten salt, lead and sodium nuclear reactors, along with some French-like standardization may reduce nuclear costs somewhat. I haven’t run across forecasts of a major drop in costs, however, at least not until the advent of thorium reactors. What technology are you referencing?

I’m referring to the lftr thorium reactors. they can also be used to burn up nuclear wastes. there’s a couple companies working on that including Transatomic, Flibe, and working off different designs Terrapower and a Canadian company whose name I’ve forgotten
Thorium may take off faster than many thought even a couple of years ago. We shall see!
