BRITAIN GETS SERIOUS ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING: Government poised to approve 16 mini nuclear reactors to hit net zero.

A planned new generation of mini nuclear reactors could protect Britain from future energy crises.

Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng is poised to approve funding for British engineering giant Rolls-Royce to create a fleet of mini-reactors.

Ministers are understood to have adopted a ‘change of focus’ towards nuclear power amid the current crisis caused by rocketing global wholesale gas prices.

Rolls-Royce believes its plans to install at least 16 plants could create 40,000 jobs by 2050 in the Midlands, the north of England and other parts of the country.
