There was a good comment about the status of #SmallModularReactors for #NuclearEnergy at #MarginalRevolution yesterday:

E.g., "The TRISO Accident Tolerant Fuel (ATF) is also the basis of several Micro Reactor designs with solid graphite moderated cores. The mobile shipping container Xe-mobile and Westinghouse eVinci are of this type while stationary campus-scale co-generation plants are the primary use case for the Ultra Safe Nuclear Micro Modular Reactor (USNC MMR)."

It's a wrap! My main takeaways from yesterday's event on #SmallModularReactors :
🥇We need to better support the EU SMR champions to cope with international cooperation
⚡️Permitting and network development are issues for all types of energy sources, including nuclear

When it comes to #nuclearEnergy and #greenwashing, can we all please condemn (as swiftly as humanly possible) the notion of #SmallModularReactors (#SMRs).
The #UKGovt is set to fund a $280M (USD) project with #RollsRoyce to build the country's first #SMR.
The continuing march of the #deathcult.
What we need is a proper #rethink of #growthism, #corporatism (aka cronyism) and #hyperconsumption.
