So we built two.

We built two.

So two units turned on in Georgia, Vogel 3 and Vogel 4.

So these were sort of additions to an existing plant.

And those turned on in, I think 2019 and 2020, I believe is when those turned on.

So we have two.

Now that project was a disaster.

It was eight years over timeline and about $15 billion over budget.

So it's a travesty, really.

Power should be cheap, right?

The whole point of nuclear is that it's cheap.

That should be the point of nuclear, at least.

So I would say that that was a failure.

And Hinkley Point C in the UK is another example of this.

Many years over budget, billions and billions of dollars over budget.

And so our only recent examples of building nuclear in the West are essentially failures.

It's all downstream of public perception.

We can talk about the regulators locking things down too much, which is absolutely true, especially when it comes to testing.

But the reason they did that is essentially responding to public sentiment.

So what drove public sentiment away from nuclear?
