Revisiting Thorium Energy - The Future of Nuclear Power?

• youtube.com, Undecided with Matt Ferrell

While nuclear power raises fear among many of us, it's considered one of our better options for a reliable, carbon-free renewable energy future. Alongside small modular reactors, molten salt reactors (MSRs) that use Thorium as a fuel, are considered cheaper, cleaner and safer options to the traditional nuclear reactors. With experimental tests scheduled for a Thorium-reactor in China and US companies developing projects that should be spinning up in the next few years, let's revisit my previous video, Thorium explained, and molten-salt reactors, and when we'll be able to see their impact. Could Thorium reactors build a cheaper and safer future for nuclear power?
