Amazing. I have to talk to Vinny about the nurserey.

There has to be a disconnect here. How can it make sense for a nurserey to start paying 1.5 cents (*) per kWh for heat, by switching from gas to disposable batteries, on the theory that the disposables are greener? Maybe their gas bill is $5 per month now and if they end up paying $20 per month for their metals, nobody will notice. I haven't checked up on them, but I will after the system is installed.

I hope they are able to complete the system before winter. There has to be some custom work to get it hooked up. But I can't wait to get the "what we thought" and "what we found" from those guys.

* The system should produce heat at a lower cost than electricity, since a lot of heat is generated when you burn the metals. If you are just extracting the H2, then that heat is wasted. But here they are trying to make hot water, so it's not waste heat. So I divided their estimate for the cost of H2 from their sustem by 3.
