Carbon Free energy source.
Now a firm launched by Bill Gates in 2006, TerraPower, in partnership with GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, believes it has found a way to make the infamously unwieldy energy source a great deal nimbler and for an affordable price.
The new design, announced by TerraPower on August 27th, is a combination of a "sodium-cooled fast reactor" a type of small reactor in which liquid sodium is used as a coolant and an energy storage system. While the reactor could pump out 345 megawatts of electrical power indefinitely, the attached storage system would retain heat in the form of molten salt and could discharge the heat when needed, increasing the plants overall power output to 500 megawatts for more than 5.5 hours.
Bill Gates claims this reactor can't melt down like the old reactors.
I'm betting pigs will fly before TerraPower will get a green light form the carbon free people. Place your bet. George

In my younger days, mom, dad and my brother made frequent visits to dad's youngest brother Pete, who took over the home farm from grandpa MIke. It was the typical set-up, milk cows, pigs & chickens.
