Excerpt:
"The microreactor on the ute in the photo is 1 megawatt with a target cost of 15 cents per kilowatt hour. It is expected to run for five years before refueling, and is called the Unity Nuclear Battery. The plan at the moment is to sell them commercially starting (wow) in 2028. With mass production and fine tuning the team at Deployable Energy hope to get the cost of electricity down eventually to as little as 5 cents a kilowatt hour."
