Over 75 percent of the total projected costs for nuclear electricity production in Europe between 2030 and 2040 were levelized costs of electricity (LCOE). LCOE for nuclear technology include the construction, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning of nuclear units. The climate costs was forecast to amount to only six euros per megawatt-hour of electricity produced, and health and accident costs were estimated to be marginal.
