Welcome to the Fusion Reactor StoreFront. We carry the finest in Nuclear Fusion Technology.

Background:

Fusion is based on combining Hydrogen (H +1) ions to create inert Helium atoms (He 0). When this combination, or fusion is achieved, there is a massive energy output. This Fusion reactor uses particle accelerators to send two different isotopes of Hydrogen towards each other at very high speeds.

The Isotopes used are:
- Deuterium - Hydrogen with One Neutron (Atomic Mass: 2), and
- Tritium - Hydrogen with Two Neutrons (Atomic Mass: 3)

When these two atoms combine, Helium (which is made up of 2 Protons and 2 Neutrons) is produced, as well as a single Neutron as a by-product. This reaction causes a high burst of heat, which heats water contained in a steam boiler. The steam then passes through turbines which are connected to Electromagnetic Generators which produce electricity.

Pricing:

Flawed System Members Get a Free Unlimited Building Plan for as many reactors as they order. Flawed System Members also recieve 50% off all purchases.

Fusion Reactors are priced in a step-by-step basis.

Step I: Choose the type and quantity of reactors
- Lite Reactor - 15,000 MW - $10 Million (Code: RL)
- Standard Reactor - 20,000 MW - $15 Million (Code: RS)
- Heavy Reactor - 30,000 MW - $25 Million (Code: RH)

Step II: Choose the building plan (Power Plant Construction)
- Basic Plan - Max. 2 Reactors, No Minimum - $2.5 Million/Reactor (Code PB)
- Advanced Plan - Max. 5 Reactors, Min. 2 Reactors - $2 Million/Reactor (Code PA)
- PowerPlant Plan - Max. 10 Reactors, Min. 4 Reactors - $1.5 Million/Reactor (Code PP)
- Unlimited Plan - No Maximum, Min. 10 Reactors - $1 Million/Reactor (Code PU)
- Build your own Plant: $0 (Code PO)

Step III: Choose plant addons
- Backup Array - Allows system to store enough power to provide constant power flow for 1 hour after shutdown (Though actual time may vary) - $5 Million (Code AB)
- By-Product Processing - Processes the Helium By-Product for commercial use - $1 Million (Code: AP)
- Deuterium/Tritium Tanks - Each reactor contains one tank of each, but these tanks allow you to stockpile, each tank holds both Deuterium and Tritium - $0.5 Million/tank

Please do your own math, though I will check. Please use codes when ordering (not absolutly necissary, but useful). Building Plans only cover basic facility construction. If you wish to purchase more than one Power Plant please ensure that you group each Power Plant separatly. If you have any questions please telegram me (OOC: And if you think I'm godmodding, please let me know so that I can fix it)

I want to purchase 10 heavy reactors with the unlimited plan. I want ten Backup Arrays along with the By-product Processing(is that individual units, or can I just buy one program to put into all ten reactors?), and I want 10 tanks. The total comes to 311 million if the By-product processing is jsut one million for all the reactors, otherwise it would 320 million for everything if each BPP thing is one million.

(OOC: Just for reference, what is the relative technology level of your nation? I think that, depending on your nation's technical level, your costs might have to be increased by 10 to 100 times from what you currently have. As for the plant additions, I personally have no problem with the costs as they are. Nice work!)

Now that is an excellent storefront!!!!!!! We will most likely be in touch via telegram.

The By-Product Processing is per Facility, because you are using the Unlimited Plan and ordering one facility with 10 reactors, you only need one BPP.

Your order has been totaled and the construction crews will be sent once at least 25% of payment is wired. Please inform us of any documentation (work visas, etc) that will be required for our work crews to enter your country. Once construction is complete we will contact you and require payment of the remaining half. Construction is estimated to take about 6 months (2-3 days IRL)

Total Cost: $311 Million
Payment Required before construction: $78 Million

-----------

Just for reference, what is the relative technology level of your nation?

Our nation is quite advanced and these fusion reactors have been in full-scale production in our nation for quite a while. Therefore we feel these prices are reasonable

-----------

Also, to clarify some things that may need clarification:
1. A Power Plant (or Facility) can contain multiple reactors
2. The Building Plans are for the construction of the Power Plant
3. One By-Product Processing per facility is all that is required
4. Tanks can supply a single reactor for one month (when full), or many reactors for less time.
5. Backup Arrays can only provide backup systems to ONE reactor.
6. You can opt to build your own Power Plant (Building Plan PO) and therefore, would not need a building plan.

Orders can be sent via Telegram or by Replying to this post.

Perfect! *total amount wired to PWaF* Thanks, your a good nation, really good, not a hint of n00bism in you! You have my blessing, if that means anything, we don't have much of a rep. :D
