China’s ‘Linglong One’ SMR Pioneers Digital Control Tech 🌍⚡

Move over, sci-fi futurism – China’s Linglong One small modular reactor is making real-world waves! 🌊 The innovative nuclear project in tropical Hainan has begun installing its digital control system (DCS), dubbed the \"nerve center\" of operations. Think of it as an AI-powered brain 🧠 for clean energy!

Developed entirely by Chinese scientists, this 125 MW mini-reactor isn’t just about electricity. It could soon power urban heating, seawater desalination, and industrial steam production – like a Swiss Army knife 🔪 of energy solutions!

\"Our DCS uses two homegrown platforms,\" says Deng Xiaoliang of Hainan Nuclear Power, highlighting China’s tech independence. The reactor follows Hualong One, another domestic nuclear breakthrough, but packs its punch into a compact format 🚀.

Approved by the IAEA in 2016 and under construction since 2021, Linglong One could rewrite global energy playbooks. Could this be the Netflix of nuclear tech – compact, customizable, and binge-worthy for cities? 📺 Only time will tell!
