Get some salt and melt it bruh
wtf
Nuclear power

What? lol
Nuclear power is - by far - the cheapest source of power we have access to currently. This is why so many countries still heavily rely on nuclear power despite its inherent risks.
How?? A sabotage of an MSR or other inherently safe reactor wouldn't lead to much more than some leakage.
Hm I've never heard that claim before, mind quoting some sources? And don't we hear all the time that petrol is running out *soon*?
Simple: will is miles cheaper than wind and solar will ever be.
You could certainly use wind and solar for almost all your energy supply (some countries already do). It'd just be much more expensive.

Thanks to the internet salt is in abundance, and therefore it is a great option for nuclear power.

Were you born stupid?

appearently he is because trips
Don't forget that since thorium is so abundant in the earth's crust, it makes nuclear power even more in reach for the hobbyist that isn't a brainlet. Anyone care to explain how a LFTR plant works compared to OP's uranium molten salt reactor plant?
Asher Fisher
LFTR plants are a type of Molten Salt Reactor.

it makes no sense to make reactors that are too advanced if they are never to be made if it is not for essential research and development purposes.
Really reactors should be as cheap,safe and reliable as possible. it doesn't matter what cools or regulates it, it just has to work.
molten salt requires no water, and really since it keeps heat or air well besides most reactors only need to get to 100 degrees celsius or 200 degrees to turn turbines efficient that is all that is required, half output mst reactors don't run at full capacity because of the risk of any meltdowns anyway.

because british nuclear fuels was bought outright by electricty de france along with their plants that's why.
Privatized to be bought by another country's national nuclear industry makes no sense. The reactor is called the European Pressurized Reactor (again linked to the eu).
really its so the eu has a foothold here and the chinese through their investment in the project.
finland told them to fuck off and built a reactor with the russians (again pwr) and we could do the same with the americans or the russians (the americans have lots of PWRs) but the british government seem obsessed with europe and the chinese for some reason.
Landon Nguyen
there is nothing wrong with pressurized water reactors. they work very well and are very safe. the only drawback is with safety comes less efficiency.
