These Mini Nuclear Reactors Can be Built Anywhere

.
Pakistan K-1 was a smaller one, 110 MW, during last decade it is 80 MW,
Smaller plants are more expensive and man power roughly same to safe guard them, specially in Pakistan case,,,

How many megawatt would be required to power a big society like dha , imagine each society having its own power plant producing cheap electricity
 
.
DHA had a plan to generate electricity from garbage in 1980's, 5 MW.

I would shudder how many PPP members they would have to burn to get to 5MW?

On topic: Nuclear energy is still one of(if not the) cleanest sources out there but requires a very high degree of maintenance and technical knowhow compared to solar.

There's this little issue of nuclear waste being dangerous for thousands of years. You know 100 years from now people using fusion reactors are going to call it mind boggling reckless for people today to have been creating such an unneeded hazard for future generations using fission.

Better than burning fossil fuel at least.

hydroelectric energy is the safest/cleanest/reliable/cheapest energy source, but it can't be build in all places.

DHA has huge swathes of vacant land. BT is bigger than Dubai.

Nuclear is not cost efficient on small scales. It works best with huge industrialised nations on laaaaaarge scale.

You need +10 GW scale plants for nuclear to pay off.

Small reactors I think are best for air conditioning, or desination.

Pakistan can fulfill its needs from much safer and easier renewable sources.
Wind, best one solar, and hydro but its state itself which is the biggest hurdle.
