I watched a documentary years ago on Frances new nuclear reactor, I believe it was round and used helium(?) as back up cooling. They turned the water off and it ran for three days self cooling itself, the duration of the test.
This was supposed to be the wave of the future to power the grid without needing coal, natural gas etc.
WTF happened to that initiative?
We is it only wind and solar?
Why isn’t the us using geothermal or nuclear.
Wind and solar are like dirt farming, always hoping you have just enough rain and sun, not too much or too little and something as trivial as a hail storm can wipe out your crop.
Who wants to live like that with energy.
