Small reactors are old news by several years (think Toshiba 4S), HPG is just a new player. Won't even list their customer... hmmm.
Hopefully it takes off.
More hopefully, we can build Gen III and IV reactors, reallow breeders, and reallow waste reprocessing.
In other news, the first real ZEM coal plant is now online in Germany so we'll see how that goes.

I prefer putting solar panels on every building in the lower 48, combine that with a computerized grid and plug in hybreds and we are set.
Its not that I suck at spelling, its that I just don't care

It's not "Zero Emissions," it's in a test phase, not "online," and it requires long term sequestration of its CO2...
