And the belief that you will actually be able to deliver it. Try it. Go try to pitch Google a $/MWh figure that undercuts what they’re offered here and see how far you get.

IIRC Nuscale was supposed to be doing a demo SMR project in Idaho until the costs blew out and nobody wanted to pay for the new costs. So we’ll see what comes of this.

What are you talking about? If you have Google an offer to sell them $1 for $0.50 they will absolutely take it even if they 99% think you will flop. There is no downside.
