Bill Gates, Warren Buffett to Launch ‘Game-Changing’ Nuclear Power Plant in Wyoming

Interesting, and hopefully, encouraging energy development. Two-thirds less waste?

[Wyoming Gov. Mark] Gordon said the small, modular nuclear reactor would provide on-demand energy and result in an overall reduction of CO2 emissions, while creating “hundreds of good-paying jobs through the construction and operation of the unit.”

Gates, [said] ... he believes “Natrium will be a game-changer for the energy industry.”

The plant will be a “multibillion-dollar project,” with costs to be split evenly between government and private industry, TerraPower President and CEO Chris Levesque said.

The plant would produce two-thirds less waste by volume than conventional nuclear plants, Levesque added.

Don't get too excited. Remember that fusion power has been 20 years away for the past 60+ years.

So exactly how much have the tax payers been coerced into being a "public partner" in this power plant?

The same number that have been coerced into being "public partners" in the subsidies and tax breaks given to coal and oil.
