Thanks, Madam Chair.

Thank you to the witnesses for their attendance this evening.

I'll start with Mr. Saab.

Mr. Saab, some critics have argued that the technology won't be ready until at least 2030, if at all, and they have characterized SMRs as an expensive science experiment. They've suggested at the same time that we should obviously be looking at wind, solar and other options. We've heard that tonight from some of the other witnesses while you've been present.

What's your response to that?
