You have a lot of plans for nukes. Better get them started to be ready

How long does it take to build a new power plant?
40-60 months
If we're talking actual construction time of a nuclear power plant, it's
a bit of a long endeavor and depends on the design. Generally, plant
construction can take 40-60 months from the first concrete pour to the
end of construction when fuel is loaded.

Any technology you foresee is going to be online faster? The same crowd
that doesn't want a nuke in their backyard isn't going to want a wind
farm or solar installation either. Good luck at turning every roof in LA
into a solar generating station.
