That being said the new year brings new surprises for those wishing to build new, old energy design, POWER projects, or clean, 30 year old, ones. Those new cost considerations are far more advanced that present thinking and they will require a whole new cost est. projection, which is the very project we have been working on for years, relative to integrated clean solutions. It was never enough to simply do the min. required in old cleaning work. While it is easy to see that work was much better than nothing, $119 Million will not get the job done anymore.
We attempted to make this point before the deadline for the new rules to KICK IN on JAN.1 and no one seemed to listen. Time and Time again we have been saying this is far more costly than most might think and yet M&A with regard to power went right on as if they simply had no care in the world. All the while this is what you might now get new in basic combined cycle systems..
Keep in mind that is NEW POWER PLANT Construction not something 30 years old, or older.
Not that this is remotely like, what we might wish to build for the same, Massive Amount, of money.
Even with all our work we still don’t have a total projected number and it may be months before we do, even as we are working full bore on the project. While all of this research is private, to be sure it is FAR NORTH by a long SHOT of that old clean number. Our work has not come up with a total figure as yet but as the managing partner, I am able to say, there is no way that number is even in the ballpark.
More will be in our 2011 Power Report, however that report as are all reports will be private. That data is only provided to our private Energy Division and the Bus. Dev. Working Partners. It will also be provided to all Licensee holders.
To be sure, A Permaculture Mindset MUST BE REQUIRED, as we view BACT, IN AMERICA STARTING IN 2011
Anything short of that missed the B, as in BEST.

Just got this today, showing someone IS BURNING HOT WITH BRIGHT GREEN ENERGY..
I am very pleased to see no NUMBERS were injected into this very important announcement and HOPE they will not be in the future as the real numbers make SHAKE The foundations of these old energy THINKERS. This REGION is in OUR WHEELHOUSE to be sure WE will want to speak to all Executives with regard to this NEW BACT, REDESIGN with CLEAN GREEN SOLUTIONS EST. in PRIVATE.
HOPE IS ALIVE and Growing Stronger by the DAY
With regard to the Site remediation $500M to $800M JOB. That should be directed by the .org that force the clean up in the first DAMN place. Read their PDF here…
We will consider power properties for clean conversion solutions.

As ideal projects are located we will work with our private partners to produce estimated conversion costs for each potential Acq. property. This is done, in large part, due to changes in the private funding financial structure. That new structure has recently been proven with a new $2B TRUST which we view as first rate. This rating based on the non profit funds willing to invest. This maybe directly related to timely annual disbursement factors, no doubt attractive, to the TRUST Partners. As our own program moves forward, we are selecting, in the black, green energy working models, that might be assisted by SEEDING. See as news might warrant, footnote.
We will be contacting our long standing private base to secure working partners while reporting back with regard to our own private TRUST as news might warrant. Both big cap and mid cap working partner project cost est. will be added together as needed. This will provide all potential TRUST Holders with total potential cost considerations per possible project Acq.
IT has come to our attention as of Dec. 17, 2010 that a present number for old energy design clean retro fit is projected to be far to small from our viewpoint. Currently we see this from a more advanced clean solutions perspective that is (LAER) by design. Revised and extended remarks are held as private at this time as the numbers become VITAL. The current number that has been used to make this project possible is no where near what we would need to get the job done utilizing (BACT) as we see it, much less (LAER). This disconnect is on the order of less than half of the true projected costs considerations that should be used and even that number may not work. Those who do not get this FACT either don’t care about the environment or don’t understand why it is important to do the JOB right the first time.
This means business development information is limited in scope here, however we do wish to keep our friends posted as to all potential future developments.
This is very important work and it should be done with far more size and speed than we have the time or power to devote to it, however these are very long term green sustainable objectives demanding VAST potential outlays of time, effort, and money that must be considered. Anyone who might wish to agree with the numbers currently provided may simply be fooling themselves with regard to old energy designs and demands, which are extensive. Many of these properties are well over 30 years old.
Such is the nature of alternative energy in America. This new TRUST aspect will change the snail pace seen for the last 22 years, if and only if, real numbers are being used for possible conversion to clean sustainable solutions. That may happen as (BACT) numbers shift to what truly might be regarded as Best Available Control Technology. If we do the JOB it will not only meet (BACT), it will meet (LAER) Lowest Achievable Emission Rate objectives.

When should working clean energy models be funded? Should effective land use matter?
only when the feedstocks are a part of an integrated CAD/BIM/GIS total system design will it be possible to see real economic value exhibited on a large scale.
http://1eco.com/category/integrate-cadbimgis/ algae shows feedstock potential in many forms, closed loop design models being one such form however small. closed loop systems do not demand large cost if costs are offset by effective design utilization for other important aspects other than feedstock production. why closed loop, you might ask. Total system design space utilization. case in point. the latest solar array approved for future funding has a total land area demand of over 4 thousand acres. this is poor integrated design however it will be funded.
as for investors. in an attempt to fund the first successful green alternative oil BTL effort, very high risk has been taken with less study than should be required. others are now looking at Carbon sequestration & storage http://1eco.com/category/css-carbon-sequestration-storage/ which would deal directly with the energy issue from a clean burning perspective with old energy system designs. STORAGE becomes their issue, again demanding large land space utilization, which has also been approved for funding. Neither future funded program will be utilizing that land as it should have been, however both are going to be funded. Only when closed loop systems are integrated in a total system design will you begin to see truly effective clean energy system designs. This does not seem to matter at this point in the funding process.
Who is to blame for these short sighted funding choices and why?
Integration will shift CCS to CCSC
It is possible to see the potential shift from Carbon Capture & Storage to Carbon Capture, Storage & Conversion. This is a major step forward to new cost effective alternative power and fuel. It is the infrastructure expense that must be reduced. It is the closed loop network that must be designed with those cost considerations in mind. Operations and working production plant life will make or break the best integrated green sustainable designs.
Utilizing co2 to enhance the production of algae is part of that integration. The ideal power mix must be both sustainable and a hybrid closed loop design that will reduce land demands on a large scale.
Our design is unique to our research in that we see this integration as vital to the economic and green co product production. Our advantage is M&A with integration & operations in mind. Select old energy projects have the potential to be converted. Any effective first phase of potential alternative power and fuel development will look to conversion, retrofit, and remodel before new plant development. We will not be seeking working agreements with old energy projects but rather conversion after Acq. as attractive options present themselves & infrastructure expenses are improved.
Conversion potential is global as CCS may become CCSC here….
