Most power would come from Hydrogen generators with the hydrogen being made on-site using water from the deal plant if not nuclear power could be used.
Hydrogen is more easily extracted from ammonia (NH3) rather than from water (H2O). Ammonia is a pretty unpleasant chemical though. It takes huge energy inputs to produce liquid hydrogen. You need to liquify it in order to transport it. Then what? Burn it to produce electricity? We would need to build new hydrogen powered electricity plants. That’s a massive infrastructure investment. It’s also incredibly explosive. You can’t just use liquid hydrogen to turn on a light bulb.
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) = cheap, transportable energy. We now realise we can’t just keep burning fossil fuels though.
Thorium reactors are much safer than uranium reactors (the technology has progressed enormously over the past 30 to 40 years) - but imagine the outcry if a thorium reactor was proposed for the Gong.
The horns of a dilemma indeed. Even more challenging than getting the Dragons back to a top 8 side!
