John Kutsch, Executive Director Thorium Energy Alliance: The potential for use of thorium was studied extensively during the 1950s and 60s. Now worldwide interest is being revived due to limitations and issues concerning safety, economics, use and issues in the availability of other energy sources. TEA advocates thorium based nuclear power in existing reactors and primarily in next generation reactors. TEA promotes many initiatives to educate scientists, engineers, government officials, policymakers and the general public.
