I'd like to find a link to share (and will, when I find one).
Some of the bits are starting to fit together, and I think that we aren't far off a future energy system, and a greenhouse bonus (whether you believe in it or not, it's a safe bet to believe in it). Could be the next step in the use of nuclear energy.
Iceland are about to go supercritical.
They use a lot of geothermal energy, and are about to take the next step, and tap magma, to produce a supercritical water/steam to power their turbines.
It will allow a huge increase in power density, but introduces other benefits of supercritical water.
Just about all minerals are dissolved, allowing mining without holes and miners.
They are developing patents to send CO2 down the hole witht the water, relying on nature to create methanol and hydrocarbons, similar to the Russian abiotic theory of oil production (also makes buckets more sense than pumping CO2 into old oil fields).
I'm really starting to think that human ingenuity can pull the coming energy challenge off !!!
