    Therefore, potentially less energy is required to produce hydrogen. Nuclear heat could be used to split hydrogen from water. High temperature (950–1000 °C) gas cooled nuclear reactors have the potential to split hydrogen from water by thermochemical means using nuclear heat.

    It could also produce electricity and supply process heat. Up to 30% of this heat could be used to produce hydrogen via high-temperature electrolysis significantly reducing the cost of the process. [1] The envisioned reactor design is helium-cooled, using graphite-moderated thermal neutrons, and TRISO fueled. [2]

    Steam reforming of hydrocarbons to hydrogen is 70-85% efficient [11] High-temperature electrolysis at nuclear power plants could produce hydrogen at scale and more efficiently. The DOE Office of Nuclear Energy has demonstration projects to test 3 nuclear facilities in the United States at: Nine Mile Point Nuclear Generating Station in Oswego, NY

    A nuclear fission reactor, which splits atoms to generate energy, can generate the energy required using more energy-dense fuel, but the process creates radioactive waste.

  8. Nuclear reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_reactor

    A fission fragment reactor is a nuclear reactor that generates electricity by decelerating an ion beam of fission byproducts instead of using nuclear reactions to generate heat. By doing so, it bypasses the Carnot cycle and can achieve efficiencies of up to 90% instead of 40–45% attainable by efficient turbine-driven thermal reactors.

  9. Fusion power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_power

    In stars the most common fuel is hydrogen, and gravity provides extremely long confinement times that reach the conditions needed for fusion energy production. Proposed fusion reactors generally use heavy hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium and tritium (and especially a mixture of the two), which react more easily than protium (the most common ...
