Hydrogen as an energy source
As for divide up the molecules it's a definite possibility that it would prove not energy efficient. However there is quite a bit of data to be added about fusion, with regards to it's feasibility and power projections. I been avoiding adding it since me and another user can't quite work out the purpose of this article. But if you would like to review some links, your more than welcome. This is stuff I haven't added yet. Updates can be found on my work page User:Sparkygravity/Kardashev Scale.

 Kardashev scale 
 * http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/11/071114163448.htm - gives me the number of coal plants world wide 50,000. So, if I can link 50,000 times some power plant say fusion that generates more power, I can show by implication that human civilization could become a Type I, simply by replacing or supplementing coal power plants with fusion, or some other more efficient power source.
 * http://www.universetoday.com/2004/04/26/how-advanced-can-a-civilization-become/ - interview with Dr. Michio Kaku gives figures that humans will reach type I within 200 years, Type II in 3,200 years, and Type III in 5,800 assuming a modest 1% power growth (estimates done by Freeman Dyson - NEED TO FIND)

Add Nuclear Energy to section, Need to go into fission and fusion, wish to commend 24.182.14.17 with respect for his attempted contribution, it's from him that I got the idea

Things in nuclear that have to be done, a litte about ITER, about DEMO can't go into it too much or else it'll skew article towards earth-centered POV

links:
 * http://www.iter.org/a/index_faq.htm - talks about the current power effienceny of ITER and current fusion power plants
 * http://www.iter.org/pdfs/open_day_11.pdf - talks about ITER's power rating ~500MW, consumption rate ~487MW, construction start 2008, planned finish 2016
 * http://www.iter.org/a/n1/downloads/construction_schedule.pdf - ITER construction schedule
 * http://www.iter.org/FAQ/EE2.htm - talks about the power generation of ITER at 500MW, duration 400seconds, consumption rate during longer burn 200MW, and power generation if thermal energy can be converted to electric energy at a 33% effciency ~200MW (not useful for commercial application)
 * http://www.iter.org/FAQ/EE3.htm - the plant following ITER will be 6 times bigger in size and produce 1300 to 1500MW, which 1000MW will be commercially for sale. (This will be a demonstration of commercial viability.) not called DEMO, but implied


 * http://www.pppl.gov/polImage.cfm?doc_Id=48&size_code=Doc - talks about DEMO, DEMO will generate 2500MW of power, 1000MW (efficiency of 40%) will be for sale commerically. ITER has a gain of 10 produced/consumed... Fusion power gets more efficent the larger the plant, so DEMO will have a gain of 25 of produced/consumed.--Sparkygravity (talk) 16:34, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
