Thanks for the link. Its a good article to know about technicalities of the economics of Nuclear power generation. The link you provided directs to a pdf file (http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/RL33442.pdf) on which Check the page 18: you'll find this; "Under base case conditions, it seems unlikely that a new nuclear power plant would be constructed in the United States, barring a sustained, long-term increase in natural gas prices and the creation of a substantial, mandatory greenhouse gas reduction program that would increase coal-fired and natural gas-fired generating costs." So it is clear that Nuclear power is expensive comparatively.
