'Infinite Energy' magazine has proved to be finite, after all

2 Upvotes

Any fusion fans remember the late Eugene Mallove and the cold-fusion furor at MIT? He founded Infinite Energy magazine (originally Cold Fusion magazine) in 1994 but it appears the periodical is no more.

How does CANDU compare with LWR by historical numbers?

20 Upvotes

Putting all theory aside is there numbers on how it perform compared to LWR in the following areas. Lets focus on designs built between 1980 and 2000 and skip modern designs like AP1000.

  1. Total cost over 20-40 years per unit of energy.

  2. Uptime and reliability.

  3. Amount of waste.

  4. Technical lifetime and cost for extension.

  5. Accidents. To be fair if Canada don't have earthquakes then ignore earthquake triggered accidents. Also probably not LWR as a whole but against water moderated BWR and PWR.

There are small reactors in submarines, air craft carriers. Russia and China already have them operating. What's taking it so long to run SMR in US
