2011年8月16日 · Laser Power Systems from Connecticut is developing a method of propulsion that uses thorium to produce electricity to power a car engine.

A car powered by as little as 8 grams of thorium would never need refueling. Laser Power Systems uses a high intensity laser to heat thorium, exciting the molecules to a point where the...

2015年3月5日 · About 8 grams of thorium, encased in a three-inch-thick stainless-steel box, would be enough to power a car for a million miles and prevent passengers from the harm of radioactivity, the...

2023年11月28日 · Imagine a world where a small amount of thorium can power your vehicle for its entire lifespan. With just eight grams of this dense material, you could drive a million miles without needing to refuel. Get ready to witness the future …

2024年5月26日 · A thorium-powered engine, weighing about 500 pounds, could transform both personal and commercial vehicles, providing unmatched efficiency. With thorium packing 20 million times more energy than coal, the possibilities are endless.

2021年1月5日 · A US company says it will have a nuclear-powered prototype vehicle on the road within two years. Laser Power Systems from Connecticut is developing a method of propulsion that uses thorium to produce electricity to power a car engine.

2024年5月21日 · There is a new idea of a car that would cover 1 m km unlimited distance on only eight grams of thorium fuel gone viral. Thorium, a slightly radioactive metal, may turn out, to be a very promising alternative power source, compared to the conventional fuel for cars.

2024年10月30日 · Discover how thorium-powered cars could revolutionize transportation with unmatched energy density, a million miles of range, and environmental benefits.

That’s why a company called Laser Power Systems has created a concept for a thorium-powered car engine. The element is radioactive, and the team uses bits of it to build a laserbeam that heats water, produces steam, and powers an energy-producing turbine.
