How is this fundamentally different from Nuscale approval? Like Nuscale this is also brand new design, sodium fast reactor, that hasn't been commercially deployed and is likely to run into usual ballooning budgets and western nuclear construction roadblocks/delays
- dmix 7mo agoIf there’s more than one approval a decade maybe the odds will be higher it won’t be a bloated mess.
- croes 7mo agoOr you just have two bloated messes
- evilos 7mo agoThey're already building this one. Nuscale didn't break ground AFAIK.
- pfdietz 7mo agoNuscale wasn't a sodium fast reactor. Perhaps you phrased that poorly? Nuscale is a PWR.
- mayama 7mo agoI wanted to emphasise both are untested new designs that are likely to run in to troubles, one is SMR and the other Sodium.
