"This is MUCh bigger and better. Read all the DD on Mantra and its web pages. Your comment on power generation confuses me because this is not geared to generate power but a product solve a problem on ERC. The battery issue is separate. Did I miss your point?"

Battery issue? Did I MISS SOMETHING?

I was refering to the electical power needed to run the electroreduction that converts CO2 into formic acid. That power needs to come from somewhere. If it needs to come from a coal fired power plant (which will be one of the best sources of CO2 soone), then it needs to use a lot less power converting CO2 to formic acid, that the energy produced by the coal fired power plant that produced the CO2.s that clear enough? I know they could use power from solar, but then it competes with end users for that solar, so my thinking is that any technolgy that caputures and converts CO2 to a product must use a lot less energy than the CO2 producing power plant produces, or it is a now win option. Entropy is a B*tch.
