Comment on We have brownouts in the summer and Kevin O'Leary wants a Data Center built here.

omg how are you guys misreading this so much.
Small and reproducable doesn’t mean cheap electricity when compared to typical large nuclear reactors, and cheap electricity is what we want.

Large nuclear reactors scare VC with large upside cost and delayed construction so they don’t get built. Known and tested SMR’s pretty much have that covered. I’ll accept clean energy over cheaper.

You don’t need VC. And you’re back to what was already covered. I’m just gonna stop responding.
