The UK's Small Modular Reactor Competition
Let's talk about something other than Brexit and the gay club shootings. The UK's Small Modular Reactor Competition "The UK government has launched a competition to select a design of a small modular reactor (SMR) for future deployment in the UK. The idea behind SMRs is that they can be factory built and stamped out like aircraft and transported to location on the back of a truck. With thirty-three companies / designs on the shortlist, this looks like the process could take a while to complete" http://euanmearns.com/the-uks-small-...r-competition/ An interesting read. The idea of lots of small reactors distributed widely is appealing. It gives redundancy, means that spares for only one type of reactor needs to be held, and training is simplified. -- (\_/) (='.'=) systemd: the Linux version of Windows 10 (")_(") |
