YES, there is no substitute for renewables. The cost of building solar and wind farms is negligible if one compares the cost of waste disposal into the cost of a nuclear power plant. Every developed country now has nuclear power generation capability. The US can’t be the only country that must deal with waste

Let’s expand the scope of the issue here. We have a waste disposal issue and if MSR or any technology can be used to reduce or get rid of nuclear waste then I say bring it on. It can be financially justified by the cost of disposal. The most difficult issue to quantify is the risk of doing nothing

I get that military opted to use a smaller footprint for obvious reasons. But land-based applications should employ MSR as soon as it can be commercialized because to continue stockpiling nuclear will certainly lead to some type of accident or natural disaster. What’s taking so long? Perhaps there is indeed a way to
