There are technology (reactor) demonstrations planned within the next 2-3 years, so not quite but very close. A lot of active R&D work going on right now for specific designs at a lot of companies.
The technologies on which these reactor designs are based have been demonstrated previously. The specific designs are in progress and well on their way. AGR, EBR-II, and MSRE are examples.
So that's a no, then?
WTF is it with nuclear bros and their war on reality?
Maybe, but I've had plenty of conversations where I've bought evidence, facts, used reliable sources, etc. and I see the same people still lying their asses off.
Good call. Who are they shilling for though?
I could see the fossil fuel lobby funding this, I'm not sure the nuclear lobby exists given how unprofitable it is.
