Nuclear Power and Natural Gas Peaker Plants are the most expensive form of generation. The last Solar towers have been decommissioned due to their expense.

Utility-scale solar, which refers to large solar power plants, can produce electricity at costs as low as 2.4¢/kWh and just under 4¢/kWh and onshore wind is on par with solar while offshore wind is a little more expensive but is close to large populations centers along the Atlantic Coast has the most expensive fossil fuel plants due to distance for fossil fuels to be either shipped via train or pipeline from where they are mined or extracted and refined.
