Internal valve, interesting, if they can get it past our emissions. Emissions killed the rotary engine what was basically a 2 stroke ball of fun.

I've always considered myself an environmentalist, but I ride a 2T. At least I have an electric lawnmower!

From the local power plant that burns coal and gas? Even if you have large windmill 'farms' they don't produce regulated electric power. The local utility still has to use coal fired generators and gas fired peaking generators to fill the gaps in power production! Hydroelectric dams are better but they still cause environmental damage downstream.

I have 2 each gas powered cars and motorcycles along with the Zuma (yes I'm single lol). I do care about the environment, recycling and such, that's all I was saying.

Some of the environmentalist are starting to re-evaluate their opposition to nuclear power. We still have a problem with NIBY's screaming about waste repositories.

With advancing technology, I think nuclear power definitely deserves attention.

AFAIK they have come up with standardized designs for reactors that can be installed on sites. If I remember right they are just waiting for approvals. I read a lot of things but my memory is shite.
The government in the US made the utilities accept wind and solar power but did not require the producers to provide storage so it could be released on demand into the grid, -a BIG, GIANT, ENORMOUS mistake. Unfortunately that is typical for lawmakers.
