Weapons Proliferation

UCS says all MSRs require on-site fuel processing. ThorCon nuclear reactor does not.

We need more details on this reactor.

Cost

Specs for a 500MWe plant:
Plant cost per KW (including building but not land, permits or licensing):
Operating cost per KWh (including fuel and maintenance):
