Small, Modular Reactors Driving Nuclear Industry to New Energy Frontiers
Small modular reactors (SMRs) produce 300 megawatts or less of power, and are about one-third the size of conventional nuclear reactors. Like the Mini Coopers of the automotive world, a new generation of mini-nuclear reactors may soon be driving ...
Are Small Reactors Part of Our Energy Future?
Smaller reactors are currently being developed and promoted as a new option for electricity generation using nuclear energy. There are many benefits, as well as drawbacks, to using small modular reactors (SMRs). The new generation of reactors will cut ...
