There are several private companies looking to commercialize SMR's.

Wouldn't it be easier to answer ''there are no currently operational commercial thorium reactors, and we have no clue what their output really is... just theory.''
"We have no clue were it would tie into the NH grid, and since we don't have a clue as to the cost per Mw output... we can't determine whether it can compete with natural gas generation without an ongoing subsidy''
As can be noted by the NuScale Project: "In January 2021, UAMPS and NuScale executed agreements to help manage and de-risk the development of the CFPP. Pursuant to the initial orders from UAMPS, Fluor Corporation and NuScale (as a subcontractor to Fluor) are to develop higher maturity cost estimates and initial project planning work for the licensing, manufacturing, and construction of the CFPP.''
