Hopefully, local utilities will gain power and each city controls its own MMR units and therefore the price. Also less transmission cost, which is often more than half the cost of power.

Multiple similar reactors have been built in China, @caav56, Japan, Germany, and the US. Russia is even starting a similar program. We're ahead for now.
I'd love to see these powering the ConEd steam pipes in New York City. Of course! Replacing the fossil fuel burning power plants in Manhattan is easier said than done. The engineering I should be secondary to the political issue. But I would have no problem with having one of these in the plant across the street from me, provided a nice rebate on electric power.😅 It hit over 90° today and I am more than a little worried about power going out over the next few days
It will vary depending on the country and site. In the US, the US DOE is mandated to do this. Ordinarily, the used fuel is stored on-site in dry casks storage. Eventually, the DOE will relocate it to a consolidate repository and then a permanent repository. Same as current reactors. Can potentially be improved.
So at the end of the project lifetime, say in 40-80 years, you're going to want to shut down the site. the site needs to be returned to green field, which means removing any activated materials and structure, and even industrial materials and structures at the site. Unlike other industries, we create a fund of approximately 15% of the initial CAPEX to execute the decommissioning process.
We have built 0 units. We have 2 projects that will have shovels in the ground soon. Similar technology has been demoed and is operating in China and Japan. Must accelerate.
Waste storage is not an issue. The used fuel can be used to power fast reactors which will reduce the waste by 99.9% with the last portion becoming harmless in 300 years. We are talking about 20 grams of waste for the total lifetime per person energy use. Less than a US penny. This is not a substantial amount to worry about.
@@Unknown15916 fast reactors have the ability to destroy weapons grade nuclear material. It is true breeder reactors can produce plutonium but these reactors have to be designed to do this and operated on such a way as to not produce Pt isotopes that will denatured the usefulness of the Pt for making bombs. Fast reactors can also be designed such that weapons grade Pt can not be produced and in some cases destroy this material. To shorten, fast reactors can be designed not to produce weapons grade material.
@@Unknown15916 this is not a fast reactor. it is a thermal reactor, and the spent fuel is TRISO, which is basically impossible to reprocess. It would be easier to create an enrichment facility by several orders of magnitude.
Not that we'd design or certify it for just sitting there, but I don't see why you coudn't leave it there for decades. It's all ceramcis and metals in highly controlled environments. There are some subsystems with plastics, electronics, and water cooling. Those would not fare too well for very long with inspection/maint
We want to engage in mass production as well licensing to other manufactures in late 2020s. Need as much support as possible. Tell your friends. This is for all mankind.
Coal plants don't have any plans on waste storage, in fact they just pump their radioactive materials right into the water and air. NUCLEAR FOR THE WIN!!!
Concept is amazing since there's not much new in the field of energy production, but out of all important benefits versus other sources you state WEF forced "zero-carbon" agenda! Come on!
gotta flow with the times. Personally, reducing CO2 emissions from power and heat is just an excuse to reduce the other pollutants and ultimately reduce the cost of power for humanity.
"In any system of energy, Control is what consumes energy the most. Time taken in stocking energy to build an energy system, adding to it the time taken in building the system will always be longer than the entire useful lifetime of the system. No energy store holds enough energy to extract an amount of energy equal to the total energy it stores. No system of energy can deliver sum useful energy in excess of the total energy put into constructing it. This universal truth applies to all systems. Energy, like time, flows from past to future".
You're half right. Of course the laws of thermodynamics hold true. The difference when you're dealing with nuclear energy is that you're dealing with a unique fuel source, one that stores energy as mass itself. And through E = mc², that's the most dense energy "storage" you can get. The amount of energy just waiting to be extracted from uranium, thorium, and so on is unfathomably large. Of course you still can't break the laws of thermodynamics, but annihilating mass itself to produce energy is the next best thing, whether from the fission of today and tomorrow or the fusion of the hopefully not too distant future.

So they just marketed the lucky strikes on things like where they were grown or their taste (which was medicore and the same as other brands) but because no other cig manufacture marketed those basics they dominated with the idea that they were the only ones or at least the first ones to popularize a industry standard. Let me also draw your attention to how washing machines were popularized. Husbands thought they were useless and silly "just another thing to buy" but the manufactures of washing machines didn't try to appeal to them. Instead they marketed how much extra time it would save house wives and how clean it could get their clothes. Husbands effectually gave into their wives and were forced to buy the machines even if they initially were skeptical.
