China's small modular reactors spark debate over solar's future

Original: China is already building THESE? Will SMRs make our solar plants useless?

Discussion is growing around China's rapid construction of small modular reactors, or SMRs, a new generation of compact nuclear plants. Commenters are asking whether the technology could undercut solar power, which currently dominates new energy investment. The debate centres on cost, build times and whether nuclear can now compete with renewables at scale.

Why now: China's advances in nuclear technology are raising fresh questions about the future competitiveness of solar energy.
