Microreactors are compact reactors will be small enough to transport by truck 🚛 and could help solve energy challenges in remote, commercial and residential locations, or even military bases! Our MARVEL project will be a sodium-potassium-cooled microreactor designed to generate 85 kilowatts of thermal energy. The project will be used to help industry partners: ✅ Demonstrate microreactor applications ✅ Evaluate systems for remote monitoring ✅ Develop autonomous control technologies for new react

Small modular reactors – a promising nuclear technology still under development – could offer reduced costs & faster construction compared to today’s nuclear power plants More on these reactors, their potential & challenges for bringing them to market from IEA’s Brent Wanner 👇 | International Energy Agency (IEA)
