But we know they have a different motive.


Small, modular reactors have long been viewed by many in the nuclear power industry as the most promising technology—indeed, as the only realistic path forward—for nuclear power in the United States. In a possible step forward for next-generation nuclear power, the Tennessee Valley Authority is applying for a permit to build one such reactor. Although the specific reactor technology has yet to be determined, the utility could have it running by the mid-2020s.

This will make make Nuclear Power, the fastest growing source of energy.

What will? One small reactor that won't be online for another five years minimum? Safe fission power might come to be the fastest growing power source, but it won't be any time soon.

Been down this road before with nuclear power. Absolutely failsafe, and power so cheap it won't need to be metered. That is how the first nukes were sold.

When it is up and running, then we can celebrate.
