   Again something not specifically nuclear but anything that can affect the grid, power production, or storage in the future (OK maybe far future) will affect nuclear power. I have posted articles about graphene in the past for it's potential as a super capacitor to be used in tandem with renewable energy. It appears that it can be used to generate power from room temperature. Not quite a perpetual motion machine more like the old self winding watches that worked on the wearers movement only it works on ambient temperature. Applications in the near term (projected) are for medical devices and other small power consuming devices, if ever as it still needs proof of concept. It does seem to show that the future of power is unclear. May be another "Zero Point" energy who knows. Even if if never gets by powering cell phones  that's a lot of power when you add up all the cell phones.

   I believe that they can't even make one that big yet, but as for cost it was not that long ago that one square centimeter cost 10's of thousands of dollars. The price curve and the technology is a way's off. But if you told a buggy whip manufacturer in 1900 we would walk on the moon in 60 years he would have laughed. Being an old SciFi fan I put 50 quatloos on science and free enterprise, take us out Mr Sulu.

Found this today and is somewhat related. Wind, solar, fossil, hydro, graphene and now bacteria  ;) Ten or twenty years form now who knows what the mix of our power systems will be. Well all but one.  ::)

   Yet another new power source though small it may eventually have some impact, clearly predicting the future of power is not clear but it is fun to speculate. Nuclear will not survive unless it evolves as well.
