No, I haven't listened to the CC yet. I also believe that you might be looking at the revenue streams in reverse. The Biogas and Biofuels coming off their process will be the main revenue generators, the resulting carbon and/or ash for fertilizer use are supplementary byproduct revenues. The 1000MW new-fuel Powerhouses are what really light my candle. The typical revenue to a power generator is roughly $45+ per Megawatt/hour. In the case of the USSEC units, that's about $45K/hour 24/7 or $1.08MM per day. With just three plants online, they will have annual revenues in the neighborhood of $1.1 Billion from electricity sales alone. If their Heat Rate (BTUs consumed per kW generated energyvortex.com ) is better than coal or natural gas conversion, and/or their power plants can run at better than the typical 31%-32% efficiency of coal-fired, oil-fired or natgas-fired powerhouses then the impact will be earthshaking. This technology certainly has the potential to take the impact of manipulating OPEC ragheads down a peg or two - real quick. The boys at Pratt & Whitney are pretty sharp. As the first USSEC plant comes online (..no doubt operated using high level DCS computer control with all the usual whistles, bells, and data recording/trending capability..), the old stuffed-shirts 'know-it-alls' like Foster-Wheeler, Nooter-Erickson, Fluor-Daniel, Bechtel, Stone & Webster, etc., will have to sit up and take notice - or get left behind.
