This’ll be all the rage when global warming has us living under a sheet of ice.

The economy has to be carbon free by 2030? The Brits are hell bent to destroy their economy.

At some point reality will collide with the “Green” PC fallacy.
No matter the human cost, reality will ultimately prevail.

Been in the works since at least 1979, regulations so far say no

I wonder if this is pebble-bed technology?

Rolls Royce and Lucas Electrical. What could possibly go wrong?
Do you know why they don't make computers in the U.K.?
Because the British engineers haven't figured out how to make them leak oil yet?

I wish the article reported what nuclear fuel the reactors will use.

this doesn't look like next-gen technology, just scaled-down pressurized water reactors. same old nuke problems (meltdown, waste disposal): smaller scale, but many more nuclear plants.

LFTR thorium reactors are the solution. Of course, this is all predicated on us believing in the climate change religion. Clean coal and nat gas will last us hundreds of years if not for the climate change myth. If not, then LFTRs are the solution.

Yes i’m sure it’s going to be interesting to watch the Brits running around in circles trying to come up with more power when they could simply just reach over and hit the light switch.

So use the greenie-weenie’s fears as a reason to get the reactors built, THEN kick the sticks out from under Gorebull Worming. Never let a crisis go to waste.
