The golden age of nuclear energy
A recent meme floating around the media is that we are entering a "golden age for natural gas". The phrase is derived from a recent International Energy Agency report that included a scenario they called GAS - Golden Age Scenario for natural gas. That model run included a projection that natural gas could increase its energy market share from 21% to 25% by 2035. Atomic Insights wants to start a new meme - the golden age of nuclear energy. There is no way that any other fuel or power source can compete with uranium or thorium fission on anything close to a level playing field. The fuel is too darned compact, too darned cheap per unit of heat, and too darned clean (clean enough to power sealed submarines for goodness sake.)
