Summary
The authors of the study of the Academies of Sciences not only expect significantly higher costs than the previous studies on the topic, but also a surprisingly wide range: 15 billion francs at best, 45 billion at worst. The low scenario of 15 billion francs thus corresponds approximately to what other studies consider realistic. A study shows that: A new nuclear power plant would not only be on the grid by 2050 at the earliest, but also poses enormous financial risks.
Furthermore, Study warns: Costs for a new Swiss nuclear power plant could explode to up to 43 billion francs.
