ThoriumPower is what fusion wanted to be and way safer, cheaper and way more scalable.  Using the power of thorium is nothing new, has been tested in small scale 7 MW from 1964 to 1969 by Alvin Weinberg and only needs production maturation and the development of a few safety items.

It is due to political issues by the AEC (Atomic Energy Commission) that this green, clean and endless power generation never gained the same popularity as classic nuclear power generators.  One political issue, that might have changed slightly, is that thorium power stations cannot supply plutonium for weapon, which was in strong demand in the 50's, 60's and 70's USA.

LFTR (ThoriumPower) advantages

• Fuel is diluted in liquid to make it easy to pump and treat chemically.  The liquid is molted fluoride salt - very stable concept.
• Reactivity is naturally stable because heat expands the salt beyond the critical level.
• High temperature (800C) provides for 50% effective Brayton power conversion turbine-generator.
• High temperature provides for electrolysis of hydrogen, a fuel raw material.
• Longterm radioactive waste is < 1% of that of a classic reactor.
• Waste from the classic reactor can be burned in the LFT reactor.
• 1 ton of fuel (0.5m ball) can provide 1GW continuously for one year.  One ton costs about 600,000Kr - 1/6th of Denmark's electricity/year.
• There is enough thorium on Earth to supply the whole world with energy for a thousand years - and endless supplies on the Moon's surface.
• Thorium reactors cannot suffer from china-syndrome or explode they are naturally stable.
• Thorium power plants can be fabricated in various size and delivered on trucks - 100KW to many GW.
• The very small quantities of waste need only a few hundred years of safe storage - 87% of waste 10years and 13% 300years storage.
• Dismantling a power plant can be executed almost immediately.
• The power plants impose hardly any environmental impact.
• The power plants produces no plutonium or other materials for mass destruction or weapon.
• Thorium fuel need not to be enriched in expensive facilities.
• Due to very high efficiency much less cooling is needed.
• Construction cost is very low, which enables the poor countries to participate.
• The footprint is the smallest for all currently known energy production facilities.
• The power plants can freely be build underground or build in conventional square buildings.
• Terror attack is futile; nothing to steal; nothing to blow up.
• Very limited use of building material (steel and concrete).
• Produces a series of rare ingredients needed in electronics and medicine.
• Estimated production price $0.01/KWh or 6øre/KWh.

LFTR (ThoriumPower) disadvantages

• Relatively unknown - even in universities.
• The process is difficult to follow.
• Deviate from existing nuclear power infrastructure and way of thinking.
• Cannot deliver material for manufacturing of weapons grade plutonium.
• Consists of a chemical process system.
• Needs a dose of U233 in order to startup it's own production.
