Insane amounts of heat is exactly what you want from your power plant..
- choilive 2y agoBeing pedantic, but most heat is considered "waste" heat - aka it is high entropy energy, which is much harder to convert into the more useful forms of energy (mechanical, electrical, etc.)
- mr_toad 2y agoMost power plants (coal, gas, geothermal, nuclear) and some solar plants already use a heat engine. Modern designs can capture nearly half the heat energy for use as electricity.
