Thanks, Madam Chair. I'd like to start with Dr. Ramana.
Dr. Ramana, you're not the first witness who has raised the comment as it relates to there being no customers for SMRs. We have had a lot of witnesses in front of us, including a public institution here tonight that has sold the merits of the technology. The private companies that have come forward have illustrated that they're willing to invest and have invested quite a significant amount of their own private capital and resources into making the technology work. We were given some very clear deadlines here tonight—guesstimates—in terms of when the technology would be not only ready but in use.
How do you rationalize that in terms of the private sector continuing to put money into this technology and spending its own money to make it happen? I can't imagine a business trying to sell a product when there is no customer at the end of the day to purchase the product.
Can you rationalize that in terms of your study and try to make some sense in terms of what we've heard to date through the first several meetings?
