Advanced nuclear technologies are “the shard of light we need”
Two recent news stories—the Department of Defense’s launching of the Advanced Nuclear Power for Installations (ANPI) program and the development of prototype nuclear batteries in Japan and South Korea—are tied together in an article by London-based writer Nick O’Hara, creator of the Substack Gridlocked: Why the 21st Century is Broken and How to Fix It.
According to O’Hara, these two developments taken together “could be the shard of light we need in otherwise dark times. Because innovations in advanced nuclear technology could be critical to unlocking the path to decarbonizing our societies and combatting climate change.”
