Small Modular Reactors should make regulation a lot easier vs bespoke behemoth power plants. Unfortunately they still seem to be all promise and no deliveries.

- mharig 3y agoAFAIK they are all breeder reactors. So they can be rather easy modified to breed Plutonium and the likes. Good luck, if one of them shows up in the hands of Daesh or other religious-ideologically or political-ideologically disturbed minds. Edit: Furthermore, small reactors produce more radioactive waste than big ones. Although the study I read was about conventional reactors, IIRC.
