SMR Hype Dream? (Patreon)

For years now I get peppered w Qs around SMRs - I always dismissed them.... saying too slow, too risky, too unproven.

Well now the FT says something similar. ... not that I trust media but they do have a point.

My main point is at best, only a handful will ever be built in the U.S.—and they’ll end up as complete failures: massive money pits that never come close to their projected MWh costs. The technology was already commercially unviable 5–10 years ago, and with storage costs falling even further today, it’s now entirely irrelevant.

Guess who is once again at the middle of all this? YUP ELON MUSK
