So if you install 10 times the current capacity in form of FF reactors these reactors would be able to power EVERYTHING that needs energy today.
A perfectly sensible observation but the real expansion will be those things we don’t do today because the energy cost is too high. (In some places that includes living beyond 40 but that is not what I am getting at here). Imagine what could be done if energy was not a constraining factor.
Yes, of course, other raw materials and scarce resources kick in and will be a big issue – but again I say; Imagine. 🙂
