Conversations about clean energy often concentrate on decarbonising electricity through solar power or wind mills. However, electricity generation only accounts for approximately 25% of greenhouse emissions. On top of that, electricity cannot supply some of society’s other needs - just think of heating, clean fuels, and desalination. Instead, fossil fuels are still largely used to respond to these essentials. The decarbonisation challenge is thus larger than producing clean electricity.

We contribute to a clean planet by developing a reliable nuclear reactor that makes efficient use of fuel, minimizes radioactive waste, and does not emit CO2 during operation. While our Thorium molten salt reactor (MSR) design is an obvious product of our efforts, the real but less-obvious product is high temperature steam. This is what comes out of the reactor and can be used for various purposes. It can be used directly to drive industrial processes and thus replace fossil fuels. Or it can be efficiently transformed into other clean energy forms such as electricity, hydrogen, and fuels. This variability is what makes nuclear power so complementary to other sources of clean energy and a solid replacement for fossil fuels.
