About 4-5 years back this was an experimental discussion here but looks like one company (Inertia) is partnering with Lawrence Livermore Lab to commercialize it now. It is considered to be cleaner and safer than nuclear fission based energy. While it neither uses radioactive material as input or output, it is not completely risk free. For example, the reactor wall over time becomes radioactive, although with a much shorter half-life. But certainly not at the level of Chernobyl. This could be a boon for EVs and AI data centers. But according to Inertia, the full-fledged operation is still 5-10 years away. I wonder how the energy landscape will shift as it becomes mainstream.
