A futuristic vision for sustainable heavy-duty transport with nuclear microreactors.
Start ExploringThe Thorium Truck Engine Project aims to develop a compact thorium-based microreactor (TSMR, ~1 m³) to power a 40-ton semi-truck with 10 kW continuous output, charging a 1 MWh battery for 2.2 MW bursts. By 2035, advancements in fission fragment collection, materials, and AI control could make this feasible. This platform guides you through the development phases, from research to regulatory approval.
The fictional TNFPM (~3700 cm³, 2.2 MW) serves as a visionary concept, highlighting the limits and potential of nuclear miniaturization.
