That's for conventional nuclear. Small reactors will take a order less as they have structurally safer designs.

Don’t you love vaporware? It can do anything!

Real-life non-vaporware solar + battery combo installations are improving and spreading all the time.

By the time vaporware small nuclear materializes outside of demonstration projects (10 years? 20?) there’s no telling how efficient and ubiquitous solar + batteries will be.
