Is This the Breakthrough for SMR's?
I was intrigued this morning to read that StarCore Nuclear, a startup in Canada that's focusing on small, independent nuclear plants to provide a spectrum product (power, water, heat) had been - it is reported - in negotiation to provide an African nation with not less than twenty-three nuclear plants. This audacious plan at first brush sounds incredible, but it's in the details that the wisdom is found and, in fact, perhaps the model for Small Modular Reactors (SMR's) to really break through into the world's broader market for power.
