Statistical research on 2/3 of the first core nuclear fuel cost in nuclear power plants

In this present article, a systematical research and analysis is newly introduced on traditional investment estimation of nuclear power plants, where 2/3 of the first core nuclear fuel cost is incorporated into construction cost on account of historical factors, which is considered unreasonable and inappropriate. In view of facts, the cost should be distinguished into operating cost according to “Two-Stage Treatment Scheme”. It can be manifested that decreasing construction cost as well as increasing economic benefit will be reached by including 2/3 of the first core nuclear fuel cost into operating cost.
