For comparison, the Hickley Point plant current being built in the UK spans approximately 380 football fields and will cost $30B.
These are massive industrial complexes + giant cooling towers. This single-building reactor does look “mini” compared to that. It also seems to be more cost-effective, 12 of them would generate almost double the 3GW of that one plant.
