The reactor itself doesn't even need to be capable of utilizing the degraded fuel. Other reactors in other locations could be built to utilize the degraded fuel and receive it from the primary reactors at a reduced cost, free, or even have the primary sources pay the secondary reactors to take it.

There could be a series of reactors that utilize lower and lower grades of fuel until it no longer makes economic and environmental sense to further "burn" the fuel, at which point it finally gets stored at a much less radioactive state, or gets processed to remove the fissile material from the non-fissile material. Isn't it easier to get fissile material from used rods than to dig it out of the ground?

MODS- can we have post #27 on put in a different thread, perhaps this one:

Put Ariana Grande and Puff Daddy in Teslas Model 3s.

Did P-Diddy revert back to his former alias?
I'm pretty sure it's Ariana Venti by now.

Do I have any reason to know who these people are?

So...how 'bout them Furds?

In the navy the nuclear rods had to be replaced because they needed to never be in the situation where you have a shutdown and then are unable to immediately restart the reactor because of decaying poisons. Saving 20 years of fossil fuel is great, but the cost of the uranium washes that out and the added cost of operating a nuclear plant makes the CVN more expensive per mile than the CV. Why do nuclear carriers then? Because they carry more jet feul, bombs, and can operate much longer without resupply.
This is why we need nuclear F150s just to stay on topic

Maybe we need our nuke fleet to help smooth the grid whenever they are at port?

No, they're just pleb fodder for the useful idiots of the world.

Fjords are good, ya!

They reduce the neutron poisons by running a very enriched reactor fuel blend. We are talking so highly enriched it's not anywhere near commercially viable for power generation.
