OT: Rolls Royce on track to deliver SMR
https://www.world-nuclear-news.org/A...very-of-UK-SMR
Rolls Royce, who uniquely do not employ Art Students to design power stations, have completed feasibility studies on what will be if it comes to pass, the first reactor design in Britain to have been designed by engineers for low cost mass production, using no new or exciting technology, just doing well known stuff better and cheaper. interestingly they address the issue of synthetic hydrocarbon fuel as well as potential hydrogen generation. The cost estimates are encouraging. 3-4 times cheaper on electricity than any renewable, and only twice the current price of fossil on aviation fuel. And capital investment in reach of private finance opening the way to build power stations for the likes of pension fund investors without needing government financial support. -- "And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch". Gospel of St. Mathew 15:14 |
