I agree 7 or 8 seem realistic, if the will exiats. Despite most of these being too far gone to recover. That doesn't stop new reactors from being built on their sites and reusing much of the electrical infrastructure.

Maybe. But all bets are off now that we know that big Data wants big power.
Maybe this is a lever we can use to untangle the bureaucratic inertia that has built up around the sector.

How about the farmstead, powered by a Small nuclear reactor, inside of a biodome, on Mars?

Any reactor that has been shut down in the last 15 years citing economic reasons is potentially in play.
Oh no, gas got cheap for a few years so let's just retire GWs of capacity, assuming it won't be needed later.
San Onofre, Vermont Yankee, Fort Calhoun, Oyster Creek, Pilgrim, Duane Arnold, Indian Point. Any one of these can be brought back to life, Palisades, and now TMI are already underway.
We have the momentum on our side now. Just a few legacy hangups like the the Linear No Threshold theory that lacks evidence, yet underpins all nuclear safety policy, to re-evaluate and we can shed some dead weight that has been a massive burden on the advancement of nuclear technology.
Gradually, then Suddenly, the nuclear renaissance is upon us.

Three Mile Island Unit 2 Revival!
Demand for power from big data is about to grow at an unprecedented rate.
20 year deal, $100/MWh, Microsoft wants every watt.
I wonder what happens when nuclear power plant owners and Small Modular Reactor vendors realize that they don't need a relationship with a counterparty if they mine Bitcoin?
A fleet of new S21Pro Hydro ASICs will net their owner $150/MWh, at current hashprice.

I agree...for now. Once Gen IV tech matures and proliferation that calculus will in nuclear's favour shift.

2024-09-13 15:03:55

- reply

Yes, I am very much aware of the current paradigm.
China and Russia have successfully built small reactors, so no longer fantasy.
I'm not trying to generate power for a home. I'm talking about an array of microgrids dotted across the globe bringing power to the billions that are still without, and supporting a high tech society that values energy density.
Wind and solar will always have a role to play for hyper local decentralization but in the log run nuclear is the most effective way to meet the power needs of humanity well into the future.

Fun fact, nuclear fuel is renewable, and abundant. As small reactors mature, they will be the anchor of nearly every microgrid on Earth, while wind and solar play support, if they are even needed then.

Massive update on the convergence of data center power demand and nuclear power plants.
How long will it take before a major data hosting entity owns and operates their own fleet of nuclear reactors?
If this is any indication, that time will be sooner that anticipated.
Could this model of building bitcoin data centers first, then attracting major players from the data sector to occupy new ground made fertile by POW. Time will tell, but I am here for the ride.

I agree, many of the high profile nuclear advocates appear to have similar values to the bitcoin ethos. However many don't see the distinction between bitcoin and crypto and are tainted by the excessive shitcoinery in the last 2 years. They'll come around eventually but it may take another full cycle of purging the trash for them to see clearly.
Some like Robert Bryce are already on the ball, though.

Yes, the technology exists to chemically and electrolytically separate non fissile materials from spent uranium full rods. France, Russia and Japan have fast breeder reactors that use a mixed oxide fuel that combines UO2, PuO and other transuranics. They can recover another 80ish% of the embedded energy in it all. It also has the added effect reducing more material to a more stable less radioactive state, while also breeding new fissile elements that increase the total amount of recoverable power.

I suggest a new podcast I just found called Gridlocked: why the 21st century is broken and how to fix it. They go through a thorough examination of the tradeoffs amongst competing power technologies and the hang ups keeping nuclear from truly flourishing. He momentum is in our favor, but there is still a lot of work to be done.

Talking nuclear power with @npub1gdu…6nak.
Why is the world so scared of radiation associated with nuclear power? Were exposed to it naturally everyday, from the sun, bananas, flying, any medical diagnostic instrument.
Is it willful ignorance or intentional misinformation? Either way, nuclear power is staged to claim its rightful position as the preeminent energy source to lead humanity into the 22nd century.

As simple as burning it may be, the resultant emissions would be even worse than what comes out of a coal plant.

No need to exaggerate the situation. The reactor units are off and in a safe state. The probability of this incident causing a meltdown is non-existant. There is sufficient water in their on site cooling ponds to sustain cooling for many months.

Greenpeace has been hating on nuclear power long before their war on carbon.
Also, all thermal power plants have cooling towers, they aren't necessarily nuclear.

With that kind of money we are going to see a lot more miners getting into power generation ownership.

No, more miners contributing hashrate to the network does. Likely means that somebody out there has very cheap electricity and is plugging in ASICs like mad.
