Who told you that FBR reactors are ready for big time commercial production or even close to ?
Do you even know that building a reactor and actually operating it sucessful are two different things.
FYI India built It's FBR in 1985 !!! YES that's 22 years ago and where is the commercialization still ?
Even by most optimistic estimates, it will take 15 to 20 more years before through testing and commercialization is achieved.
Also you do know that building FBR is 5 times as expensive than a uranium based reactor, and yet it generates MUCH LESSER ELECTRICITY.
We have to keep practical element in mind before beating our chests like fools.
USA built FBR in 1951, USSR 1955, and yet they didnt commercialize due to practical reasons.
