Fixed. Wouldn’t necessarily call it misleading — anyone who knows the difference between a MW and a GW knows that 1172 GW would be absurd. But not ideals. Thanks for the catch, guys.

1000 MW (1 GW) is a typical nuclear reactor.

What the heck? Definitely needs a correction. This is what happens when a blogger encounters the comma-or-period problem of international number notation..
