Nuclear Reactors 1341 - Four Microreactor Designs Are Discussed At POWERGEN International 2024

     Microreactors are referred to by some as ‘nuclear batteries.’ They are squarely in the spotlight at this year’s POWERGEN International 2024 conference. Microreactors do not produce more than fifty megawatts. Discussions at the conference explored the latest technologies, popular applications and the unique business models making them commercially viable. Four microreactors were highlighted as trailblazers in the sector:

     Ultimately, physicists will use the knowledge acquired from JET’s decommissioning to improve how they incorporate recycling into the design of the Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production (STEP). It is a prototype commercial fusion reactor being planned in Britain. The information will also shape future regulation, according to Buckingham.
