An interesting thought is that with a bunch of small reactors on one
site, losing the power lines wouldn't hurt quite so much - leave one
running to power the pumps on the rest, and don't burn all that diesel.

You'd also be able to keep a flatter output, as you could cycle the
maintenance around the site. I think I like the idea.
