I think it's great that the Navy is researching it. It is far from a perfect system, but does show the Navy is doing something to get away from using oil.

The carriers are already nuclear. If the carrier could produce this fuel to give to jets and ships within the carrier battle group, the Navy would save a lot of money by not having to have the resupply ships going back and forth every week from a port to the battle group.
