Abstract: Abstract Table G.1 gives data, reproduced by permission of the Rand Corporation, from a report (Mooz, 1978) on 32 light water reactor (LWR) power plants constructed in the USA. It is required to predict the capital cost involved in the construction of further LWR power plants. The notation used in Table G.1 is explained in Table G.2. The final six lines of data in Table G.1 relate to power plants for which there were partial turnkey guarantees and for which it is possible that some manufacturers’ subsidies might be hidden in the quoted capital costs.
