Unlike conventional nuclear power.<BR/><BR/>The output looks like a 2 million volt battery - DC is the most efficient long distance transmission method. However, the plants could be sited anywhere. No thermal conversions (steam turbines etc.) required. They could be put in almost any electrical power yard due to their small size.<BR/><BR/>The reactor is about 3 M in diameter and most of the required equipment is high power conversion equipment to turn the output into AC.<BR/><BR/>Did I mention it would be an ideal power source for high speed interplanetary travel?<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://powerandcontrol.blogspot.com/2006/11/easy-low-cost-no-radiation-fusion.html" REL="nofollow">Easy Low Cost No Radiation Fusion</A><BR/><BR/>The fuel is Boron 11 which is abundant. The planetary inventory is sufficient to power the whole world for more than 100,000 years. (actually we will use it up faster than that in borosilicate glass making). Probably a lot of it in the asteroid belt if we start to run short.<BR/><BR/>This really needs promotion. If you are interested I'd be glad to help.M.
