Given the large number of FF modules that would be produced, the manufacture of these would have more in common with automobile manufacture then traditional power generation equipment manufacturing.

As it would take roughly 200,000 modules to replace the current US electrical generation, plus the number required to supply the load growth during that time, say 10 years, plus the FF modules used for thermal load in industry, I would put the demand for modules at 400,000 to 500,000 over the first ten years. That is an average annual production of 40,000 to 50,000 modules, at $300k to $500k ea. That is sales of between $12 and 25 billion per year. These are an assembly line type of volume.

There will also be lots of supply industries developed at the same time. Just as with the auto industry, the FF module factory will not make many of the components, they will be purchased, delivered and the module assembled. The capacitors, electrical components, vacuum pumps, for example, may be made by supplier industries.

So maybe the FF modules will be Ford or GM products, not Westinghouse or General Electric?
