Looked a lot like a uS PWR.

see how exhilarating it is when the reactors melt down and you have to run from them. no one can ensure the safety of these death factories . the companies that build them and run them are liars and are out for one thing, to make as much money as they can at any cost.if you or any one else believe this garbage video you are all fools . in joy your cancer they give you

Think about it...If you have enough nuclear for minimum load and to back up renewables, you don't need renewables.

Do you know how many military will have to intervene to keep you alive with nuclear industries in every country? This is a major concern. Australia is buying AUKUS nuclear submarines and USA military defence weapons. $TRILLIONS. Defence budgets exploding. This labyrinth has many unknown spaces. It could have a secret space in the foundations like the British built for their war rooms in WW2. 10,000 reactors will be needed to stop CO2 emissions worldwide. Nuclear industries. My concern is not the one reactor, but the many reactors and their nuclear industries. Grids are incredibly expensive, and the bigger the new plant, the bigger the new grid. The world can not build that much grid, national GDP are not big enough. National debts will explode. The only way Australia can pay for its own nuclear electricity energy is by exporting millions of tonnes of uranium yellowcake. And coal for smelting iron ore and...

Think about the electric vehicles you can charge.

What fossil-fuel free yiu are talking about you Woke environmentlist?

Who cares the most important thing they have to open up is human rights, News media, and womens rights. Bring Democracy.

Historically and globally we currently have a dearth of atmospheric CO2 as over time it's almost entirely been biologically and geologically sequestered. With too much more CO2 sequestration, biologically our living planet will die.

@@dipladonic I think we're pretty far from worrying about that :)

@@dipladonic No. The problem is not absolute CO₂ levels but the huge *rate of change* that the biosphere and our infrastructure cannot handle. Large levels of atmospheric CO₂ changes (up or down) occur over 100,000s of years if not *millions* of years. But the atmosphere is currently at over 421ppm CO₂ which is a level not seen in *4 million* years but has occurred only the past 200 years - just since the start of the Industrial Revolution! It is not just CO₂ but also methane (CH₄). Methane is released in huge amounts from our natural use and during its processing (fugitive emissions problem). Methane has 80x the GHG effect of CO₂. In the shorter term, methane will have a greater effect then CO₂. We need to get off of fossil fuels ASAP.

The "biosphere" consists of trillions of tonnes of solid carbon based CO2 derived flora and fauna. Paradoxically, in the main, vast amounts of flora and fauna affect atmospheric CO2...not the other way around. Axiomatically, 0.02% of atmospheric CO2 could not "hugely" affect that humongous biosphere to any significant extent. To think otherwise is palpable nonsense and is costing us all a lot of greenwashing bullshit money.@@beyondfossil

Yes. Current largest is 8 GWe.

@@aliendroneservices6621wow, where is that?

You are not going to get inside the reactor building during plant operation (radiologically controlled area) and even if he could he wouldn't be able to extract much footage as these areas are highly sensitive.

The safety culture is so ingrained that there's no way you could do that -- but before a plant is operational, that would be cool to see.

one step at a time! We can hope for more people to learn!

I thought the estimates were for five thousand gigawatt scale reactors for 100% nuclear?

@@GulmoharBloom Where is this estimate from? I'd like to read it. I've been assuming that we're going to be building all SML reactors... I.e. Small, Medium & Large reactors... :-) Plus probably a few micros too... This thinking coming from what coal and gas and diesel power plants are gonna need replacing, and their different sizes. So it'd be 10s of thousands of many different sizes... Obvs big countryies deffo want to just pump out GW scale units everywhere... But then there's the small countries, small grids, islands, industry, etc. etc. etc. etc... I gather that there's 6 thousand coal units online at the moment... so then add all the gas and oil ones... and this number probbo doesn't include all the industrial attached ones... 10s of thousands is a good number to aim for.

No usa at all...only they took commissions

@@howardlee2486 The built the safety systems and controls for it.

Quick google search -- Electricity is supplied in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) at 230 volts AC, 50 Hertz (Hz).

In the US, the architect is limited in their creativity due to security and fire protection requirements. Every feature must be non-combustible and the buildings must be configured a certain way to prevent people from climbing or breaching into sensitive areas. This severely limits the type of materials and the aesthetic arrangement of the plant. Nuclear powerplants are all about functions and regulatory requirements, not aesthetics.

@@JasonKhouri still not a good excuse. All those requirements can met by something that looks nice. What I am saying the building conveys a message. What is currently being conveyed is this is something dangerous and is being encased in a military type structure. This type of architectural stuff needs to improve.

Just got to the part where he mentions that the site was supposed to be a mosque. They could easily tile the dome Girih style or similarly. Maybe that would be sacrilegious

Some people like brutalism; the concrete of the dome looks almost like marble (presumably to reflect the heat). Bike-shedding may keep people entertained but meanwhile there are other pressing matters to solve.

He looks like he's having a good time haha

Drivel.

@Ironic1950 drivel, the USA and NATO will not go near Ukraine because of the threat of nuclear weapons. USA has problems with North Korea because of nuclear weapons, The coalition against Sudam in Iraq was over the mistaken belief of weapons of mass destruction. Australia will not supply uranium yellowcake to countries that do not allow inspections. 80% of the world's population is in dictatorships. Nuclear promoters want to stop worldwide CO2 emissions with nuclear industry proliferation. FMD !!! Nuclear promoters are stupid. The grid to the customers, millions, and millions of customers needs to carry 5 to 7 times more electricity than the developed world grids handle. Idiots can not see the huge amount of cheap energy in fossil fuels needs to be replaced by the most expensive energy, clean electricity. The CO2 emissions will explode and financing will fail.

Oil and pollution rahhhhh

you can't get rid of nuclear waste. with billions you can turn deserts into forest. doing so creates a natural sponge for CO2. not only the waste, but if nuclear goes bad you kill the land for millions of years, not to mention the people downwind.

its not AT ALL if you put safey as a main priority

Accidents happen. no matter how safe you plan. no matter how well you manage risk. not to mention bad people with bad thoughts. Nuclear once out of control ... what?

@@gdotone1there are safety mechanisms nowadays, it’s no longer the 80s. Accidents happen in oil and gas too, and their environmental impact is even greater
