Rolls-Royce cranks world's largest jet engine up to maximum power with Sustainable Aviation Fuel

Amazing stuff! When was the last time you saw a Rolls Royce car?

I am not sure what this Sustainable Aviation Fuel is all about.

"Rolls-Royce has taken a major green step, announcing that not only has its giant UltraFan demo jet engine been run at full power on 100% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), but tests have proven all its current civilian engines are compatible with 100% SAF. ...
Billed as the largest and most powerful jet engine in the world, the UltraFan has a 140-in (356-cm) fan and can produce 64 MW of power. In static tests, it has generated a maximum thrust of over 85,000 lb and the technology can be scaled to as high as 110,000 lb for narrow-body or wide-body aircraft of the 2030s. ..."

Rolls-Royce will Mini-Kernkraftwerke bauen

Good news! Nuclear power technology has changed so much over the past several decades! 

Die Angst vor Kernkraft in z.B. Deutschland ist extrem irrational und wenig hilfreich!

Merkel muss weg!

Rolls-Royce will Mini-Kernkraftwerke bauen - ingenieur.de: Statt mit einer Leistung von 1600 sollen die so genannten SMR nur 400 Megawatt haben. Alle Module werden am Fließband hergestellt. Das soll die Kosten senken. Begründung: Wir brauchen mehr kohlendioxidarme Stromerzeugung.
