Small reactors could help shape nuclear energy's future
Small
modular reactors are shaping the future of the nuclear energy industry,
but traditional reactors are here to stay for the time being, said Paul
Genoa, senior director for policy development with the Nuclear Energy
Institute. Small reactors are more cost-effective to build than larger
units, and they can be manufactured in factories and delivered to a
location. "Small reactors are not a substitute for big reactors, but we
can't build a big reactor everywhere," Genoa said. PopularMechanics.com
