SMRs, microreactors could be deployed in Puerto Rico by 2025: report

摘要

Small modular reactors and microreactors could be adopted in Puerto Rico by the mid-2020s in conjunction with other generating technologies, provided there are no “major roadblocks,” Eddie Guerra, senior seismic engineer at Arup and co-founder of the Nuclear Alternative Project, said in an interview May 26. NAP is a non-profit established in 2015 that “brings together Puerto Rican engineers who work in the US nuclear industry and unite under one mission — to study and educate about the alternative of advanced reactors for Puerto Rico,” Guerra said.
