Wikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki
Frinkium Nitrate is a source of renewable and vast energy invented by Professor Frink.
History
Professor Frink used it on Springfield's Christmas tree after Mayor Quimby asked him to make the brightest Christmas tree in world. After he used it, he found it was vastly radioactive, more than he anticipated. Due to this, no snow fell on Springfield so they switched off the lighting.
