Russia’s OKBM Afrikantov completed the assembly of the two reactors for the Akademik Lomonosov, in 2009. Such plants, Buongiorno said, could be built in a shipyard, then towed to their destinations five to seven miles offshore, where they would be moored to the seafloor and connected to land by an underwater electric transmission line.

Two 150-kilowatt electric motors together deliver 403 horsepower--enough to accelerate to 60 miles per hour in 5.8 But that kind of acceleration is available only in something called "sport" mode, which uses power from both the battery pack and the gas-powered generator. It takes the Volt about 9 seconds.)
