<p>Barry,</p>
<p>A lot of fancy talk about expensively decommissioning and dismantling the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Plant.</p>
<p>Every Tom, Dick, and Harry will be charging to the project to cover their paychecks.</p>
<p>Ratepayers pay all.</p>

<p>What combination of things are they doing? Is it distributed batteries or just efficiency gains allow this to be moth balled?</p> Frank,

<p>Frank,</p>
<p>The quantity of natural gas from organic wastes, Btu/ton of waste, would be a tiny fraction of the current world consumption of natural gas.</p>
<p>About one million square miles of kelp farms might be able to replace a fraction of the world’s daily old consumption of about 95 million barrels per day.</p>

<p>It is very possible to generate 'natural gas' from organic wastes. There is proven technology in use throughout the world. Localities can do it and enhance the methane to pipeline quality, and replace part perhapps all of the fossil gas with real natural gas from recycled materials.</p>

<p>Better forward this post to Janet Mills and the rest of the dreamers. We should have had those molten salt reactors deployed ten years ago, and would have if all those tax dollars hadn't been poured into wind subsidies.</p>

<p>Please look at what is going on at Terrestrial Energy. Within 10 years Dr. David LeBlanc, Simon Irish and their team will have small SMR reactors ready for sale. These units are "walk-a-way" safe. This molten salt reactors can burn nuclear waste, work at atmospheric pressure, are sealed unit. Think of these units as batteries that are changed out every 7 years and sent for reprocessing. This is the future of nuclear power. …</p>

<p>These units can be placed at the site of decommissioned nuclear plants that have ready made connections to the grid.</p>
