Technology Review published an article a few months ago about a new nuclear reactor design that has the potential to transform the energy industry:

The reactors are much smaller, designed to generate 150 megawatts each, but could also be strung together to generate as much as a conventional nuclear power plant. They also integrate two separate components of a conventional power plant in a single package.

Babcock and Wilcox designed the reactor and is the very same company that builds reactors for the United States’ aircraft carriers. The new design along with pebble reactor designs has the potential to drastically change how we produce electricity in the United States.
