Small versus big nuclear reactors: an appraisal through the electric network / Jean-Guy Devezeaux de Lavergne, EU energy policy blog, 17/01/2011http://www.energypolicyblog.com/2011/01/17/small-versus-big-nuclear-reactors-an-appraisal-through-the-electric-network/In  this contribution, we will specify a few details relating to the  comparison of the respective advantages of small and large nuclear  reactors, by comparing them with the electric network.We are dealing here with the supply of a given power and the  conditions in which it would appear desirable to build small reactors to  meet this requirement. This also includes network requirements relating  to these reactors, with respect to the construction of larger units.  The analysis has been conducted, taking into account the greater network  requirements relating to a large reactor (further from distributed  consumption), approximated by a very high voltage connecting line  between the reactor and remote (in respect of the network) consumption  centres...
