green/solar is a meme, ICE engines need refined fuels and parts you cant make yourself while steam engines can run on anything with no pre processing and will last a century
Steam power is the only viable long term post shtf power source

idiot. heat engines are only half the equation

the trick is to never need the electricaljew in the first place

The only viable solution for mankind's problems is nuclear annihilation.
Bentley Cox
Old 2 strokes can be converted to run on steam.
Jonathan Brooks
what if i tell you anything that is not wind, sun and water powered, runs on steamturbines.
Jason Miller
Mainspring Energy’s linear generators are pretty neat desu. They can run on basically any type of combustible fuel you throw in it.
Christopher Thomas
and from where would the heat come ?
Evan Price
Giga extra super BASED.
You fuck'n winnar.
Needing complex managment systems bcause ur house is a money jew and needs help like a cripple.
U gonna make it
Josiah Cox
The trick is to learn natural law and use it to your advantage. Free atmospheric electricity could be a thing, it's a shame we need to burn fossils to get energy.
Jaxon Thomas
Ever heard of wood gas? It's a very old technology, and FEMA has instructions on how to make your own wood gas powered generator. It's dirty, requires manual labor and some mechanical skill to properly convert a gas engine, but it worked so well that a lot of Europe did it during world war 2.

Geothermal, and whatever we dig up from the ground. But outside of nuclear, coal and oil are ultimately sun produced as they were originally biomass.

>Nuclear? Thats just a fission reaction heating water to drive a steam turbine
>Coal is using coal combustion to run a steam turbine
>Plasma fusion reactor outputs heat to boil water for a steam turbine
>This here dark matter antiproton neutrino reactor creates a ton of energy, which we use to boil water for a steam turbine.
Josiah Moore
throw flammable stuff in the firebox and light it

>green/solar is a meme
Eh no, I have 10kw system and it is definitely not a meme. I can run a fucking hvac on it.
John Ross
Cool. Except that it was heavily subsidized for you, probably still is, directly or indirectly, if you connected to the grid.
Is it still 10kwnl during the night?
Justin Barnes
Lol I built it myself dumbfag, I live inawoods, that's why I built it.
>is it still
Yes faggot, that is what batteries are for.
>inb4 zomg what if the sun doesn't come out
Dont care, I dont use thousands of watts / hour cause I'm not a fag.
Christian Foster
Was just thinking about this topic a week or so ago. I believe OP is talking about use on a smaller group/individual scale. Yes industrial steam is common.
Cooper Torres
>FEMA has instructions
Post them. I'm interested
Aiden Flores
>will last a century
Kek. lmao.
Where did you get this retarded idea? Old steam engines broke down constantly.
