The Nimitz, which makes the Titanic look like a dinghy, has 194MW of
nuclear propulsion.
For tar sands, some work has been done in using nulcear power and GWs
are needed for any descent amount.
I wonder if you could use cogeneration of heat and electricity to make
the economics come out rosier.
The 'waste' heat is quite low temperature. That's the problem there.
I think he meant the other way, use the primary heat for tar sand
extraction and the cogeneration to recover the waste heat from that
process.
