About this episode
Portland-based NuScale Power has been leading the way for a new generation of nuclear power plants, called small modular nuclear reactors. Last week, the company was in the headlines because it called off plans to build those reactors in Idaho. But what exactly does NuScale intend to do? And why was this news such a big deal?
