Our friends Jack Spencer and Mike Anderson talk about thorium and its potential, check it out! dailysignal.com/2026/03/28/is-…

@zerohedge Another reason to use thorium. Not only is it abundant but we have 5000 tonnes of it buried in Nevada (in barrels) in case we need some.

One flick of a switch, and the US literally goes dark

"What about the waste?" they always seen to say about nuclear. Liquid-fluoride thorium reactors will stop making new waste and the tech will let us go back and make use of the waste we've already made. This is a big step: energyfromthorium.com/2026/02/06/doe…

energy.gov/ne/articles/do… Flibe Energy is very excited to work on sustainable solutions for our nation's underappreciated treasure: spent nuclear fuel.

We were grateful for the opportunity to talk to Adam Taggart of @thoughtfulmoney recently and remembered that he has been talking to us for a long time about thorium: energyfromthorium.com/2026/01/02/tag…

Thank you to @USRepGaryPalmer for bringing up the value of thorium reactors and uranium-233 in a congressional hearing yesterday! energyfromthorium.com/2026/01/08/u23…

We are pleased to make our fuel cycle video available in Korean. youtube.com/watch?v=8MSZFa…

@rocketrepreneur @kirksorensen @Bell_Four @RnaudBertrand Well, I've been telling the world about China's thorium program for 15 years now, so I don't think any of these latest revelations will change that: energyfromthorium.com/2011/01/30/chi…

@kirksorensen @Bell_Four @RnaudBertrand @FlibeEnergy Sorry for prematurely burying you guys. I was just expressing frustration at the fundraising environment for hardtech here in the US. I hope China's success makes it easier for you to secure the investment you need to make this happen here.

This is a genuinely incredible story: China found in U.S. archives an energy source that could power its entire future for 20,000 years - and they just made it work. I'm not exaggerating. In the 1960s the U.S. - specifically Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee - invented a revolutionary type of nuclear reactor that could run on thorium instead of uranium (much more abundant and cheaper), with no meltdown risk, generating 50x less waste, and requiring no water. Then, due to messy politics, they killed the program in 1969 and fired the visionary behind it. Afterwards the declassified blueprints for the project sat forgotten in archives for decades. That is until Chinese scientists found them and decided in 2011 to run an experimental project in the Gansu desert to see if they could make it work. A few days ago, after 14 years of work, they finally did. I spent many days researching this and wrote the full story - how the technology works, the bureaucratic politics that killed it in America, and why this could genuinely be game-changing.

@rocketrepreneur @cremieuxrecueil Flibe Energy is still very much in business and continues to pursue the goal of thorium energy generation from lithium-fluoride reactor technology. Great progress has been made over the last five years, and we try to share as much of that as we can.

@cremieuxrecueil The sad thing is that I know startups that were trying to secure funding for just this thing ten years ago (like @FlibeEnergy, run by one of my former cobloggers), but US investors at the time didn't seem to want to touch it.

China keeps getting further ahead of the U.S. in nuclear. Using American designs... that America never built.... With this latest (again, AMERICAN) innovation, in a few years, they may be fully independent from imported uranium.

As war swept over the world, a war launched on the belief that energy resources were limited, young Glenn Seaborg discovered that natural thorium could be transformed into the world's greatest energy resource. Over 80 years later, its potential still remains.

Imagine a clean power plant just as beautiful as its surroundings.

U-233 is, gram for gram, America's greatest energy asset, and we should preserve it. realclearpolicy.com/articles/2025/…

Essentially all thorium has 90 protons and 142 neutrons (Th-232). Absorbing a neutron begins its transformation into nuclear fuel (U-233), but first it forms protactinium-233. Another beta decay in about a month will form U-233.

Uranium has 92 protons and usually 146 neutrons (U-238). 7 out of 1000 atoms of uranium have 143 neutrons (U-235) and are fissile. Strike thorium with a neutron and you'll form uranium with 141 neutrons (U-233) that is also fissile.

Flibe Energy is developing small, modular reactors built around lithium-fluoride salt technology and closed-cycle gas turbines. They're just what you will need in places where water is scarce and demand is great, like the Intermountain West.

flibe.com/news/alabama-p… Flibe enthusiastically welcomes the Alabama Legislature's passage of Senate Joint Resolution 67 (SJR67), supporting the acquisition and secure storage of uranium-233 (U-233) in our state.
