As we come down the cost curve with nuclear, we'll unlock more and more markets:
➡️ 12-15 ¢/kWh:
- AI data centers
- Remote industry (mining, oil & gas)
- Military / islanded bases
➡️ 7-10 ¢/kWh:
- Small municipal utilities
- Heavy industry & process heat
- Major desalination projects
- Developing nations at scale
➡️ 3 ¢/kWh:
- Everyone; holy-grail energy product
- Water cost drops dramatically. Inland desal + pumping becomes viable
- Agriculture + megacity water security unlocked
- Steel (DRI + electric)
- Cement (full thermal substitution)
- Synthetic fuels (e-fuels, ammonia)
- Hydrogen at scale (electrolysis becomes cheap)
- No grid buildout required first, full islanded mode possible
- Industrialization accelerates massively
- Guilt-free energy abundance
- Large-scale carbon removal if desired
- Atmospheric water generation
- Vertical farming at scale
- Energy-intensive compute everywhere desired
It's a good thing there's enough nuclear fuel to last us 4 billion years...
@FatherChrisVor1 I’m fine with him removing his shoes. I would do the same along with covering my hair.
But, did he also explicitly and publicly call in this Islamic leader to denounce jihad and demand he grant the same respect to Christianity and Judaism? 🤷🏼♀️
@Twister325@davidfholt You do realize that taxes pay for city services. I don't like taxes more than others, but they are reasonable and the city spends it very well.
@DougWahl1@TeresaCardwell3 With what she is enduring, giving him is a small price to pay to try and get the country back to a true democracy. I am not holding up much hope it was worth it.
@AdamKinzinger@highbrow_nobrow Check out that in 1917 when the US bought the Virgin Islands from Denmark, the US agrees not to make any claims on Greenland.
@jacobrosecrants We need to eliminate the straight party voting option. It results in the overwhelming amount of spoiled ballots that have to be reissued during in-person voting. It is the reason why Ryan Walters was elected. All in all it is lazy voting.
