Unless I've misunderstood some of the reports, the price per kW/hr will be negotiated before construction can take place. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

All the reports I have read stated 30 % plus more in costs. In the neighborhood of $.27 per killowatts hour. I think we are in the low to mid teens right now on cost per killowatt hour.
