[quote:Anonymous Coward 78066417:MV80ODA1NDcxXzg3NjU0OTEyXzY2REZGQUU=] [quote:My Fear:MV80ODA1NDcxXzg3NjU0ODczXzI2RjIwMjg5] We don't need a nuclear reactor in Wyoming. It already has a geo thermal plant that could power the whole world, as it sits on top of one of the worlds largest volcanoes. [/quote] That isn't nearly as cool as splitting atoms. [/quote]
Original Message
Billionaire Bill Gates' advanced nuclear reactor company TerraPower LLC and PacifiCorp have selected Wyoming to launch the first Natrium reactor project on the site of a retiring coal plant, the state's governor said on Wednesday.
TerraPower, founded by Gates about 15 years ago, and power company PacifiCorp, owned by Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway, said the exact site of the Natrium reactor demonstration plant is expected to be announced by the end of the year.Small advanced reactors, which run on different fuels than traditional reactors, are regarded by some as a critical carbon-free technology than can supplement intermittent power sources like wind and solar as states strive to cut emissions that cause climate change.
