Looking for Alternative fuels

On behalf of our tribe leader I, Dar Jee, have been tasked in finding alterntive fuels for our country to use. After our near diaster with the oil, we feel we need to turn to other types. We realize there are many types such as solar, wind, and nuclear. We are not ashamed to admit that we Argonians are behind times and not as advanced as other nations. We also do not have much in the way of currencey but our brother state Zackaroth is willing to pay in helping us in our endeavors. We thank all nations in advance who send us offers in which to better modernize our species and culture.

OOC: I'm looking for actual IC responses thank you :P

The Government of Salzland would like to know roughly how much energy you need? We would be willing to build three multiple-reactor nuclear power plants (at a cost of roughly ~$10 billion NSD total) for your nation.

Edit: Please allow me to clarify that our government would incur all costs of construction.

OOC: Whats your tech? If it's ft or pmt I might be able to help more.

To Argonianss:

We are experimenting with biofuels, that is fuels or energy that are produced by organisms which can be converted to electricity. So far we've been able to genetically engineer a harmless bacteria that produces electricity.

SL: If you ever played the Elder scrolls games there around that medevil tech/ island tribe tech.

IC:

We are glad to see we have gotten so many offers. It will be a diffcult choice indeed but we have done some research and figured it is best for us not to nuclear energy. We understand that the chances of what you call a melt-down is low by I don't believe our small island can effectly contain nuclear facilities. we are more interested in solar and wind energies.

The Fascist Federation is interested in your current issue. While Nuclear Energy is our primary source of energy (Each city has at least one Nuclear Reactor), we do have other forms.

Seeing as your nation is an island nation, it is possible to set up hydroelectric facilities on the deltas of your major and semi-major rivers, as well as inside of them. We also are the creators of HydroBall Energy ((OOC: An RL idea me and and a semi-friend of mine came up with that is going through the U.S. Patent Office)), which is the closest thing to perpetual movement anyone on this world can make.

We also are experimenting with antimatter and other features of quantum physics. However, we cannot yet use quantum technology for anything other than research.

Another alternative for your nation is obviously wind power. As an island, your nation is surrounded by windy, open space. Surrounding your island with wind power stations hooked up to reception centers would no doubt be able to supply some of your nation with electricity. However, wind power is not a good idea for supplying an entire nation.

If your nation has any volcanoes, dormant or active, you can use geothermal energy, which takes a small amount of land and is extremely cheap. However, it isn't as "eco-friendly" as wind or solar power, as the excess water can damage nearby roots and whatnot.

Another energy booster is the creation of Power Prisons, which work by manual force. The concept is simple: Prisoners repent for their crimes by turning a turbine every day of their sentence.

We would be willing to set up all of the applicable energy sources, so long as:

1: The stations are operated completely by Federation Citizens
2: The pay for our citizens is supplied by you.
3: You wire five billion (5,000,000,000) Universal Standard Dollars/Neutral Currency Points to the Fascist Federation of The Grand World Order.
