-- Thailand and the Philippines are charging ahead with plans to start
nuclear reactors by the next decade as momentum grows in Southeast Asia
toward the region's first operational power plant.Thailand looks
to unveil in September a national energy plan through 2037 expected to
incorporate small modular reactors (SMRs). The government will look into
potential sites for the reactors, which would account for 70 megawatts
worth of capacity, officials say.
SMRs ??????????
The ones that don't exist ?????????????
70 megawatts ??? You must be joking.
SMRs are considered the leading candidate for adoption by the Philippines. According to the press release from the Philippines' House of Representatives, U.S. firm NuScale Power plans to invest up to $7.5 billion through 2031 to build the reactors in the Southeast Asian country.
Nuscale huh ?
