"Anndy, they are protecting their IP"
IMO they have inserted that protecting IP into their announcement, to steer away from what I believe are very poor results from a 333kW rated gas turbine, and that is what I base my comparison against.
Leaving the silicon under constant heating or should it be heated to a higher temperature, will they be able to supply a constant six hours @ 250kW as has been stated for the Glenelg pilot plant.
How much electricity was used, and its cost to bring the silicon up to latent temp 1414?


The GAS-TESS will be measured for its efficiency.
And as I said in a prior post: IMO The GAS-TESS has to prove that its use of the bio gas rivals the efficiency of SA waters already installed gas engines that supply electricity and heat.

"“By installing three new gas engines, each capable of producing an instantaneous load of around 2400kW, we’re able to make the best use of biogas to produce renewable electricity and heat."

28 homes a for a day 1 tonne of silicon
1 tonne of silicon is approx 2 cubic meters
18 kW per house per day
Average output 148 kW over 3 hrs
Average output 104 kW over 8 hrs
Average output over 24 hrs Anyone? I think 60 kW over 24 hrs would be very generous.
Might have to revise that 10 MWhr name plate!
