An interesting approach but it is highly dependent on how the technology works , which is neither explained or validated. On-site generation and direct waste to electricity are promising technologies that should be developed further. Approach of addressing off-grid markets first is a sound approach.Need a good manufacturing partner once feasibility is proven.The most important early step here is to build a prototype that shows the technology works and proves the emissions claims.
The concept is small, 24/7 containerized power plants with no CO2 emissions at a very low price, i.e. below $1.50/kWe. While the overall approach seems a very reasonable one, there is a lack of information on the two key points: the "novel electric scrubber" and how to reach "below than $1.50/kWe. The technology and the cost associated with it have to be demonstrated. Since the relatively small scale proposed from each plant, it should not be difficult to produce a few demos.
