Sorry if I missed the obvious, but are you referring to something
similar to a canon? A long tunnel dug into the ground stuffed with a
projectile and a nuke behind it? <br>

My Response:
Yes, but only on a small basis.
1. Go to an existing (already polluted) underground Atomic test site.
2. Plant geothermal generators in the desert (molten salt?)
3. Drill a central shaft and detonate an underground nuclear device deep
enough to prevent
further topside irradiation.
4. Use the geothermal generators to mine the heat from underground magma
ball created by the blast
converting it to electricity.
5. When power levels begin to drop repeat step 3 as required.
