Video: Small Modular Reactors
For the next generation in nuclear power, small is beautiful.
Policy makers are looking to nuclear power to produce clean, carbon-neutral electricity to replace coal power. But the cost and time needed to build conventional reactors has limited the ability to expand the nuclear fleet. Small modular reactors, which can be built in factories and transported to power plant sites, promise to make nuclear power more accessible. Learn about developments in SMRs in this ASME video.
