They say they can have a refinery sized installation in 15 years.

But nuclear fusion is only 15 years away.

Yes, but this means we'll be able to make petrol with all that

If we were forced to go 100% nuclear due to lack of fossil (and lack of
cash to indulge in stupid windmills) that would be the way to go. Off

It makes fuel bloody expensive, but at least we would still have some..
