LITERALLY POSTED JUST NOW BY US OFFICE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY just now, what their graphic says =
"Having a resilient and secure grid matters, and small modular reactors (SMRs) under development in the United States could enhance the nation's ability to adapt, withstand, and recover from extreme weather, cyber events and physical attacks.
BLACK START
SMRs can start up from a completely de-energized state without receiving power from the grid.
ISLANDING
SMRs can operate connected to the
grid or independently.
UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION
Makes reactors less vulnerable to extreme weather and physical attacks.
FUEL SECURITY
Can easily store fuel on-site for a decade or more without the need of an external fuel supply.
MODULARITY
Minimizes the use of electrical parts and uses passive cooling features to safely shut down without pumps or operator intervention."
