Initially, the company received 25-percent Federal tax credits, which were matched by the State. As successive plants were built, costs decreased and performance increased (the first plant had an installed cost of $5,979 per kilowatt of capacity, compared with $3,011 per kilowatt for the ninth).



My understanding is that today power generation station cost around $1,000 per kilowatt but over the life of the project one must add the cost of fuel if NG, oil or coal and I am not sure as to the differences in maintenance and running each opertion.

It may be that the extra $2,000 can be recuperated in few years
