@collectifission Not that 20 GW (plus district heating hookups) wouldn't be better, but this is a step in the right direction.Personally I would love to see high-temperature helium-graphite reactors at the Ravenswood site, feeding into the existing Manhattan steam grid, and into new pressurized-hot-water systems.
