Bloomberg: "Mini Nuclear Reactors Land in Scientific Spat Over Waste Output"
University Fellow Charles Mason addresses a new study that analyzes advanced nuclear reactors' waste.
While the study raises important points, some of the reaction on both sides may have been overblown and obscuring nuclear’s overall importance to the US energy mix, said Chuck Mason, a University of Wyoming professor and university fellow for research organization Resources for the Future.
The waste concern is “worth paying attention to,” Mason said, but “it’s miles away from a dealbreaker.”
