"Xu explained that his team had based their design on an experimental reactor that had been built in Tennessee in the nineteen-sixties. Known as the Molten-Salt Reactor Experiment, or the M.S.R.E., that project hit a dead end in the early seventies, when it lost federal funding."

#Chornobyl protective structure could collapse following Russian strikes

Protective shield built above the former Chornobyl #Nuclear #Power Plant could collapse following a #Russian strike earlier this year, plant director Serhii Tarakanov said in interview published Dec. 23

“No one can guarantee that the shelter facility will remain standing after that. That is the main threat”

Heh. This sounds so much. Right?

14.5 GWh is what a run-of-the-mill 1 GW nuclear reactor produces in 14.5 hours.

And these facilities don't produce that, they only store it, or at least most of it.

And apparently, you need »172 large-scale battery storage projects« for that.

And those apparently need $1.15 billion in subsidies (i. e. only the part the state sponsors, not total cost).

Nhật Bản tái khởi động nhà máy điện hạt nhân lớn nhất thế giới sau hơn 10 năm ngừng hoạt động vì thảm họa Fukushima. 🔥⚡️

Chính phủ đã phê duyệt việc đưa nhà máy điện hạt nhân Kashiwazaki-Kariwa trở lại hoạt động. Đây là tổ hợp điện hạt nhân lớn nhất toàn cầu, bị đóng cửa từ năm 2011.
