This is absolutely brilliant. I always believed when science progressed enough we would be able to achieve nuclear fusion. This could literally solve the worlds energy problems rather swiftly cleanly and hopefully cheaply.
Not much of a conspiracy theorist but somewhere I believe the huge trillions of $$$'s oil producing and petro dollar nexus has never allowed clean and cheap energy to develop but the worlds problems have grown too much and relying too much on fossil fuels give unsavoury characters from unsavoury nations too much of a say in matters. So to take away their influence too, now we are past bingo fuel point and this has to be done.
That is why I think we have seen the sudden rise of electric vehicles and now people are talking electric planes and new cleaner sources of energy in the past 10 to 20 years. This would have been done sooner I think if not for the reason I stated above.
The first electric vehicle was actually made in 1890. Over 130 years ago! And it is only now that electric technology has developed to make electric vehicles feasible, while the internal combustion engine made great leaps in development that even a tiny 2.0 4cyl engine can produce massive horsepower yet be efficient
