    The hypothetical benefit is that prefabricated parts are a lot less dependent on the site. This will make the reactor cheaper to build.

    There’s also a perception sleight of hand - “modular” doesn’t mean the reactor is a module you ship in on a big truck, put some uranium in and away you go. You’re building a power station in a fixed location.

    Also you still need a shitload of water.
