One-time setup

$19.7B

Annual recurring

$600.9M

Personnel

385

Estimated one-time capital costs are on the order of tens of billions (primarily construction, reactors, long-term disposal and contingency reserves); recurring annual operations are hundreds of millions driven by reactor operations, specialist staff, NETZACH operations, research, and security/cover operations.

⚡ Cost Scenarios

📊 Baseline (baseline) $600.9M/yr

88.0% probability / year

Normal year with no major incidents; routine operations, maintenance, research and readiness activities only.

routine_operations scheduled_maintenance regular_drills

🚨 Minor Incident $750.9M/yr

10.0% probability / year +$150.0M vs baseline

Localized containment stress or equipment failure requiring emergency response, targeted repairs, replacement of some dampeners/sensors, elevated cover operations and temporary staff surge.

🚨 Major Breach $2.6B/yr

2.0% probability / year +$2.0B vs baseline

Significant containment breach or destabilization requiring multi-month emergency operations: reactor shutdowns/refits, major structural repairs, large-scale environmental remediation, activation of large contingency funds and international cover-up operations.

📋 Confidence Notes

Estimates are midpoint-based aggregations from detailed analyst ranges; many items (reactors, contingency reserves, decommissioning) have wide ranges and scenario-dependent variability, so confidence is medium. The analyst notes are thorough but include high-end discretionary reserves and large uncertainties around breach probabilities and political/legal costs.
