Bill Gates and his energy company are starting construction at their Wyoming site for a next-generation nuclear power plant he believes will “revolutionize” how power is generated.

    I don’t wish to be dismissive, but, uh … yeah. Fewer risks and baseload are kinda the holy grail.

      Sorry I should have added: I always thought that nuclear had way higher output capacity than other energy options. But I think it’s clear that that is no longer the case, if it ever was.

      Thx for jumping in here and sharing your expertise!
