And advanced geothermal. Fervo Energy let's us get energy that's not based on burning fossil fuels but is, instead, able to produce energy from the ground.

replyI heard a great deal of noise from early 2002 to the present date that the US military had a high interest in small portable nuclear reactors for large bases in Iraq and Afghanistan. And particularly around the peak period of troops on the ground in AF and IQ. And indeed a place like Bagram or Kandahar used a shitton of diesel to run generators. But nothing ever came to fruition to actually implement it, has something changed now that they actually consider it worth doing?
