Shrinking Nuclear Power Plants for a Sustainable Future

✨Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are smaller, cheaper, and safer alternatives to traditional nuclear power plants.

🔥Nuclear energy is actually one of the least deadly forms of energy, with a death rate similar to solar and wind.

♻️Last Energy's SMRs offer innovative solutions for handling nuclear waste, including reusing spent fuel and exploring deep geological disposal facilities.

💰While nuclear energy is more expensive than other forms of energy production, Last Energy's modular approach reduces costs and construction time.

🌍Nuclear power, particularly SMRs, can be a significant part of the green energy mix if costs are controlled and deployment is accelerated.

Are SMRs safer than traditional nuclear power plants?

—Yes, SMRs are designed to reduce the risk of meltdowns and have additional safety features, such as underground sites.

What is being done with nuclear waste?

—Last Energy explores options for handling nuclear waste, including reusing spent fuel and potentially using deep geological disposal facilities.

Is nuclear energy more expensive than other forms of energy production?

—Yes, nuclear energy is generally more expensive, but Last Energy's modular approach helps reduce costs and construction time.

Can nuclear power be part of the green energy mix?

—Yes, if costs are controlled and deployment is accelerated, nuclear power, particularly SMRs, can play a significant role in the transition to a sustainable future.

How do SMRs compare to traditional nuclear power plants in terms of scalability?

—SMRs are more scalable due to their modular design, allowing for easy expansion by adding additional modules.
