We had tried this in SC in expanding one of our sites from one to three. It did not go terribly well.

This is great.
Currently, the owners are projected to pay $31 billion in capital and financing costs, Associated Press calculations show. Japan’s Toshiba Corp., which then owned Westinghouse, paid $3.7 billion to the Vogtle owners to walk away from a guarantee to build the reactors at a fixed price after overruns forced electric industry pioneer Westinghouse into bankruptcy in 2017. Add that to Vogtle’s price and the total nears $35 billion.
Does this seem strange to include the 3.7 billion in here? I guess when you're used to costs meaning what it cost the purchaser of said product or service it seems weird. Like, if I was the group paying for this I might even think to reduce the reported cost by 3.7 billion.
That's copied from the AP news article the post's nbcnews article links to. Similar statement in the nbcnews one, but....they don't let you highlight any text? Lame.
