It seems to me that after all the angst I’ve seen here against the #AUKUS deal and especially against #TierOne and the #SSN plans, none of these anti-AUKUS tooters have commented/?read? my 4 part toot full of details about the collaboration history of #UK #US SSNs as well as their nuclear #reactors or even read the expert opinion offering a #PlanB I also tooted recently.
Shows you that anger needs very little to feed on while closing the open mind to more clarity and more details on the object of its obsession. No pointing fingers here, it’s just an observation.

#Google and #Amazon are building #nuclear #fission #reactors to power data centers and calling it #sustainable
I know it's old news, but when I saw mention of this just now, a lot of #despair arose for me. The crash is ramping up and it's going to hurt when it comes. It already hurts now.

I'm using this as my wallpaper now, and it's cool enough I want to share it: it's a picture of the Advanced Test Reactor (the blue glow is from Cherenkov radiation in the reactor pool). I lightly edited it to give a more sci-fi-concept-art ambiance.

Once more unto the breach, re small #nuclear #reactors or SMRs, and the #EU plan to kickstart their construction. I have my doubts. TL;DR unless the EU chooses about one reactor design for the all-Union standard #SMR, I doubt *any* will reach the "critical mass" of large enough series production.

So the #Trump admin is #exempting new #nuclear #reactors from #environmental #reviews. That's nice. I was at Southern Company for all of the construction of Vogtle Units 3 & 4 in Waynesboro, Georgia. I remember those #environment #reviews. I hope these rules don't "trump" Georgia's DNR authority for example.
Either way I hope nuclear #operators will still conduct their own environmental reviews.
Just think about how costly it would be to halt #construction, or even worse have to do something after the #reactor is live, because an environmental review wasn't performed. It's going to be 100x more expensive (if not more) to fix any issues after a reactor has been built than to fix things before construction begins.
Only the most stupidest of idiots would think these new rules from the Federal Government are actually going to save nuclear operators any money!

Why the grid relies on #nuclearreactors in the #winter
Steady #nuclear energy is in high demand this time of year.
Generally, nuclear #reactors operate at constant levels, as close to full capacity as possible. In 2024, for commercial reactors worldwide, the average capacity factor—the ratio of actual energy output to the theoretical maxiumum—was 83%. North America rang in at an average of about 90%.

I'm cautiously optimistic about small, simple, heat-only #nuclear #reactors like the LDR-50 the Finnish company Steady Energy is developing for district and industrial heat. One 50 MW LDR-50 could put out something like 0.4 TWh/a, and would be much cheaper per watt too. www.steadyenergy.com

#Water #leak detected at one of #Zaporizhzhya #NPP #reactors, RIA: https://ria.ru/20241031/utechka-1981246102.html
On Tuesday, October 29, the organization's experts visited power unit No. 1 after receiving information about a water leak in the reactor coolant pump support system. In order to carry out welding work, it was necessary to reduce the pressure in the primary circuit to atmospheric levels. Radiographic inspection of the welds is currently underway.
