There is no exact cost or average but it will be in th $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 range.

It is not true. The levelized cost of a kilowatt hour electricity from nuclear energy is cheaper than any other source of electricity except hydraulic power in some countries.
This is a question of how much electrical energy you want to produce, against the cost of the equipment to produce it.

You will have to ask an electricity company that operates nuclear plants
One half pence.
Solar electricity is the most inexpensive form of electricity. Once the solar panels are installed, the solar power is free. There is also wind energy to produce a low cost electric source.
fossil fuels contain coal, if you burn coal it produce's steam,then the steam turn's the turbine in a generator to produce electricity.That's the cost of fossil fuels ,that they can produce electricity.
Cost per unit of electricity depends the type of generation used. ie:- thermal hydel, nuclear etc. hydel electricity is cheaper and now a days it cost less than Rs.10 per unit in India. whereas thermal electricity cost less than Rs. 20 per unit
You can get solar panels and wind turbines. They're pretty much free to run, but it will cost to buy and install them.
The use of nuclear energy is to produse large quantity of electricity, whihh is higher than other energy sources. But the drawback is its safty and cost, requirement of skilled person...
because farmers will then probably produce potatoes because it will cost more to buy
I think they are similar, but the cost of coal varies widely and transport can cost a lot. The costs of nuclear look good on paper but cost overruns are frequent and present predictions are not reliable as no plants have been built for a long time, in the US at least.
