Japan and the U.K. are teaming up to develop a cutting-edge nuclear reactor. This comes as fossil fuel prices are rising due to the crisis in Ukraine.
These new reactors, called HTGRs, offer a clean way to generate energy. Unlike old reactors that use water, these use helium gas as a coolant.
Helium makes these reactors safer and more versatile. They can work at very high temperatures, which is suitable for producing hydrogen fuel.
Both countries are putting their best scientists on this. They. . .
