Energy for New Jersey

New Jersey - The Energy State [2008 to 2020]

1- Build 3 - 100 MegaWatt Nuclear power plants in Southern NJ.

2- Dedicate #1 towards producing Electricity.

3- Dedicate #2 to powering a seawater desalination facility. The water could be pumped into the Pine Barrens Aquifer for storage.

4- Dedicate #3 to producing Hydrogen, Oxygen, Deuterium, and Tritium from Seawater. Release the Oxygen into the atmosphere.

5- Build two 100 MegaWatt "SuperClean" coal-powered power plants in Northern NJ that use High Sulfur coal from Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

6- Sell the electricity and hydrogen produced by these plants in NJ only.

7- Use some of the power of plant #3 to produce Dueterium and Tritium from the Hydrogen it makes and stockpile it for future use in a Fusion Power Plant. {If that is possible.}

8. Build a Nuclear Fusion Power Plant in Princeton, NJ. {2020? 2030?}

Summary -

Nuke Plant One - Electricity
Nuke Plant Two - Clean Water
Nuke Plant Three - Hydrogen, Deuterium, Tritium

Clean Coal One - Electricity
Clean Coal Two - Electricity

Fusion One - Electricity [2020? 2030?]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other Ideas for New Jersey -

~ Pass a law that says all new fuel stations that are built must accommodate E10, E85 and E100. If Hydrogen vehicles become popular, every fuel station built must supply that as well. (2020 AD?)

~ Pass a law that says all vehicles sold in NJ after 2010 must be able to use E10 or another alternative fuel. After 2015, they must all be able to use E85, E100, or another alternative fuel.

~ Encourage residents to use E10 gasoline, buy prototype hydrogen fuel cell cars, and electric cars.

{I also have some other ideas for "The Fabulous State of New Jersey" (as I like to call it), but I will leave those for the next time. }
