The government plans four large-scale reactors - with installed capacity of around 5,000 MW - or the equivalent in small, modular reactors (SMRs). Half of those should be on-stream by 2035.

Officials did not say how much the new programme would cost or how this would be shared among consumers.

State-owned Vattenfall has the most advanced plans for new reactors but has said it will not take an investment decision until the end of the decade.

So they don’t know any details yet on what they want to build or how they want to pay for it but somehow want to build them twice as fast as optimistic estimates based on existing projects in other countries? Four times if you count that “end of the decade” statement as the earliest start.

Nuclear fission is statistically provable just installung a nuke in your backyard (oh no, actually in the poorest backyards) and the waste is both, not securely storable and not calculated into the “cost effectiveness” of the projects.

It is a typical capitalist move of “privatize profits and socialize losses”
