The massive capital costs of the plant have to be paid back in the sale price of energy, that’s what makes it expensive. France’s state built plants don’t have that accounting

But the market price asked by nuclear plant doesn't account for capital costs as the real price will always be higher. What is important is the clearing price not the asking price.
