The ERC technology is all about capturing and converting CO2 from major sources like Coal combustion, Cement manufacturing, Steel manufacturing, and is not designed or intended to replace nuclear power. Nuclear power does not produce CO2, but is very costly to permit and build, has political issues, and has safety issues in current designs and fuels, and has radioactive waste disposal issues. Coal is cheap, but has mercury, sulfur dioxide (acid rain) and CO2 emissions problems and solid waste problems (radioactive and toxic metals ash disposal problems).

One of the reasons I think Larry went after LaFarge CO2 emissions to start off is the Cement manufacturing has no nuclear or solar options with zero CO2 emissions!!! There is no solar option for making cement, it is made by removing CO2 from limestone, to make lime, cement which is needed to make concrete, for roads, buildings, dams.....!!!

What I like is the long term potential here and short term potential. Short term the ERC market as the heat builds up (LOL) to capture and handle CO2 emissions. Short term the potential for the new generation fuel cell that would use formic acid from the ERC reactors that turn CO2 into formic acid.

LONG TERM. I like the growth potential, and the potential to turn the MVTG fuel cell into a replacement for gasoline vehicle engines and formic acid from CO2 into the new hydrogen fuel economy replacement for crude oil derived gasoline!!!

Hybrid vehicles running off of MVTG formic acid fuel cells could be the next step as 100% electric cars still seem to be stalled with many real problems. But hybrids are a growing market. Hybrids with fuel cells and the current regenerative battery systems may be the next huge growth market!!!

The new generation of fuel cell that MVTG has now, may solve the problems that have kept others from claiming the automotive market so far! That could turn MVTG into a monster. The ERC technology alone could be worth billions, but if the fuel cell and the ERC both reach full scale commercial adoption in the major markets we could be talking about a top Nasdaq stock here in 5-10 years.
