Mini Nuclear Reactors for a more distributed power grid!!!!

^^ But you're still talking about a 25 million dollar, ~50 cubic foot reactor that needs to be buried 100 m underground.

ETA: And nuclear reactors tend not to like running at very low powers - I'm not sure how that applies to this one which is why I didn't mention it until now.

I'm not talking about a skyscraper sized elevator here, just a level that goes up and down that can bring the reactor to the surface for refuelling and then drop it back down into a thick concrete walled chamber that can then be sealed over with a vault door of some kind.

How hard or expensive can that possibly be. I could build an elevator like that myself, hell with the concrete at my disposal I could build the concrete chamber myself aswell.

You need a Portal Diagramme to sell the concept.
