In a nutshell, FF runs 50% efficient, which means that the 5MW electrical output is roughly matched by another 5MW of thermal energy to find a use for. This means that for some applications it could be pitched as a 9 or 10MW reactor.

So there is a need for efficient thermal conversion here. Interesting …
