Floating Nuclear Reactors in California | Los Angeles News

from Los Angeles News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Bluecore Energy’s small modular reactors, designed to sit on barges, promise clean energy for 15,000 homes. But with a 1976 state ban still in place and legal uncertainty around SMRs, regulators and the public must weigh safety, innovation, and precedent as this bold experiment takes shape at Berth 48.
