Coming to a subdivision near you is a small power plant with no emissions.
Hyperion Power Generation is promoting a new design for a small scale nuclear power system developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory that is a cleaner greener method of providing electrical power.
“The portable nuclear reactor is the size of a hot tub.
“It’s shaped like a cup, filled with a uranium hydride core and surrounded by a hydrogen atmosphere.
“Sealed in a buried concrete vault, refueled every five years, its steam turbine generates nonstop power for 25,000 homes.”
