Hedging its bets, the industry is exploring ammonia, batteries, and hydrogen, among other options for powering ships. Researchers are considering three different types: a lead-cooled fast reactor, a uranium-fueled, helium-gas-cooled reactor, and a molten-salt-cooled reactor, shown here [below, at bottom].
