Russia built a floating reactor recently too. I wonder if it is too much of a risk though. Polluting fishing waters doesn’t sound good.

Norway has had two small experimental nuclear reactors since the 50s or so, and they're getting decommissioned. Turns out that's expensive. Very expensive. Current estimates have ballooned to 56 billion NOK ($5.6b).

So what does SMR decommissioning look like?

At least this project has skipped the huge NIMBY issue by putting them on ships. And if anything goes wrong I'm sure nobody would mind glow-in-the-dark sushi...

> The floating plants are expected to supply electricity to nearby offshore platforms and feed power into the onshore grid.

Norwegian offshore platforms means it's related to fossil oil/gas extraction.
