Thorium molten salt reactors are potentially a good option - nuclear that doesn't produce much in the way of dangerous byproducts, and can't melt down. China's investing quite heavily in them iirc.


Those aren't quite ready for primetime yet though. It'll be decades before we are getting energy that way, even if there was concerted research.
