    1. The Natrium reactor and energy storage system redefines what nuclear technology can be: emissions-free, competitive and flexible.

      TerraPower用三个词重新定义核能价值主张:零排放、有竞争力、灵活。第三个词「灵活」是最关键的突破——传统核电站的刚性输出让其在可再生能源主导的电网中日益边缘化,而Natrium的储能架构直接解决了这一历史痼疾。

    1. To ramp quickly, TerraPower doesn't increase or decrease the power output of its reactor. Rather, it keeps on splitting atoms, and the extra heat gets stored in a giant vat of molten sodium. When power demand spikes, the power plant can tap that reservoir to generate more steam to spin the turbines.

      TerraPower的真正创新不是核反应堆本身,而是熔盐储能系统:持续裂变产生的热量先存入熔融钠罐,需求峰值时再释放发电。这相当于给核电站加了一块巨型「充电宝」,让其能灵活跟随AI数据中心的GPU负载曲线波动。
