They are power contracts, not construction contracts. The power company isn't buying a power plant, they're buying power. That's what makes the contract so much simpler.

I'll have to pass. I don't know the power industry that well.

My rule of thumb thought, is that nobody looses 17 billion. That gets passed to the consumer somewhere somehow. In someway obviously or not obviously.
