Happy Valley nano flats rival The Peak as Hong Kong′s rent squeeze deepens (SCMP)
|
|
|
Hong Kong's surging residential rents show little sign of easing, with tiny flats in traditionally mid-priced Happy Valley now fetching per-square-foot rates on par with luxury homes on The Peak – a stark indicator of how deeply the city's rental inflation has spread.
One of the units at a serviced apartment development in Happy Valley, The Unit, was recently rented for HK$12,700 (US$1,631) a month, according to Chinese media. The room measures just 117 sq ft, translating to a per-square-foot......

Modular Reactor Tide Rising: Nano Nuclear To Study Siting Multiple MMRs To Generate 1GW Energy In Texas
One day after we observed that only a boom in onsite, "behind the meter" power supply energizing America's hundreds (soon thousands) of data centers - i.e., small/micro modular reactors or gas tubines not connected to the broader power grid - would allow the US to dominate the AI "arms race" between Washington and Beijing without sending electric bills skyrocketing...
... modular reactor developer Nano Nuclear announced a feasibility study in coordination with California-based industrial conglomerate, BaRupOn, for the deployment of up to 1 GWe of nuclear energy using Nano's Kronos high temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) reactor design, profiled here a month ago. The Kronos design is rated to 15 MWe, which could mean as many as 70 reactors would be deployed at BaRupOn's Liberty American Multi-Sourced Power (LAMP) and Innovation Hub being developed in Texas.
