I would have a look at pebble bed reactors, molten salt reactors and heavy water moderated reactors.
long story short, the designs exist, we just can't seem to get rid of the old ones that are currently built and we can't seem to get the new designs built in any sort of scale.
- GFischer 16y agoThe R&D costs for those are HUGE, as they are unproven, the countries like mine (Uruguay) that are looking into building new power plants don't want that, we want proven designs.
