Nucular Hydrogen Economy 668

Mark Baard writes "The hydrogen economy will at least in part be based on nukes. The DOE will build a pilot high-temperature, gas-cooled reactor (HTGR), which theoretically can co-generate electricity and hydrogen, side by side, inside a cheap modular unit."

Entergy, the second-largest nuclear energy producer in the U.S., hopes to break ground on its co-generation Freedom Reactor within five years.

OK, we can cut it out with this "Freedom" stuff everywhere now. Tell Entergy that they can go back to calling it their "French" Reactor again, the war is over.

If you use SEP containment technology it doesn't have to last a million years. It only has to last the career of an elected official. After that, it becomes Somebody Else's Problem.

Officials at the Idaho lab hinted at a dramatic exhibit of its pilot reactor's safety. "We could even do a demonstration in which we dump the helium coolant," said James Lake, associate laboratory director. "That would be a way to show the public in a visible way how safe the technology is."

Every time my friend says "I'm going to get gas", I say "Bring me back a Chalupa?"

Absolutely, after spending years on a nuclear submarine I know they are perfectly safe.

Everyone is scared of nuclear power. Thus the need to rename it nucular.
"Omigosh! They're building a nuclear power plant in our town!"
"No, it's a nucular plant."
"Oh, that's alright then. Whew!"

Rebranding works. Right, Philip Morris [philipmorris.com]?
