With the nimiety with which humans are using fossil fuels, it is sure not to last the century, which is why scientists have been directing most of their energy and experience in advancing the technology that deals with nuclear energy so that we might sometime in the future rely on them.
The research and development on small modular reactors as one of the nuclear energy’s new technological innovations has helped simplify the concept of a nuclear power plant thereby making it compact, cost effective as well as exceptionally safe and also gives us a hope of using clean energy within the next few years without any adverse effects on our environment.
These SMR will in future be used to generate electricity, the demand for which in the US alone will increase by 28% by the year 2040.
