200kw = 265 HP.
so, 100 x = 20 MW, which is Tiny for a Nuclear Power plant. Crap, it's small for an Industrial Power Gen Gas Turbine. The smallest Commercial Nuclear plant I've heard about was 600 MW. Usually, they are 1000-2000 MW. Using 600MW, we are really talking about a plant 3000 times smaller. The 40 yr claim on fuel rod change out seems too short. Critical Mass of a big nuke is the same for a small nuke. You just use it up more slowly.
Power Generation is all about installed cost/kw. Somehow I think this will be more expensive than wind.
The biggest issue is some stipid rigging up a bomb to one, and spreading radioactivity around.
to quote woot:
DO NOT WANT!
