| Summary | Annotation This title reviews SMR features, promises, and problems. It also discusses what lies ahead for reactors of this type. There is currently significant interest in the development of small modular reactors (SMRs) for the generation of both electricity and process heat. SMRs offer potential benefits in terms of better affordability and enhanced safety, and can also be sited more flexibly than traditional nuclear plants. The book provides decision-makers in governments, business, and research with the needed background in small nuclear power to create a balanced discussion of the many advantages of SMRs and the criticisms they face. |
