Provinces ponder nuclear

Post by JagXKR »

Alberta is to join three other provinces to explore the feasibility of small modular nuclear reactors as a clean energy option.
It says the units are smaller than traditional nuclear reactors with lower upfront capital costs and enhanced safety features.
This is awesome news and goes toward real energy solutions for the future. :up: :clapping:

You nailed it!
There's no such thing as gay rights, minority rights, or women's rights.

There are only individual rights. Either we all have the same rights, or we're just groups of special interests fighting for preferential government treatment.

Why use a large reactor when a diminutive one will suffice :-)

I personally don't mind large reactors, but if smaller ones are an order of magnitude less expensive lets do it.

So a memorandum is an official note to start looking, or, something you write and stick on the fridge to remind yourself 10 years from now?

They can use recycled nuclear waste. No more single use uranium? lol
