Nuclear-powered shipping is so obviously the right solution, it pains me we didn’t go this direction decades ago:
- 10,000x fuel-density: less space for fuel, more cargo, more revenue.
- 5-10 yrs between refuels: less stops, longer or new routes, higher uptime.
- 7,600 U.S. military naval reactor-years: nuclear at sea is already proven.
- 440 civilian land reactors: no reason civilians can't do it at sea as well.
- Already proven with NS Savannah.
- No dirty exhaust.
Can't wait to see what Nick and his team do to push this forward.
I've been obsessed with the vast and untapped potential of civilian nuclear power at sea forever. I'm now the Chief Nuclear Officer at an exciting new company bringing nuclear power to maritime applications. There's much to do, so I'm looking for passionate and highly-skilled people who want to embark on this journey with me. Hit me up if you or someone you know may be interested. We need a Nuclear Licensing expert first, but will have many more openings in the pipeline.
