The post you are reporting:
Wonders will never cease, "an integrated process which generates more thermal energy than it consumes", so what or where is the inevitable 'cost'?
A low-carbon wood product? Perhaps this is relative to cheap-coal.
Is this not the stuff, wood-pellets, that has been burning away in Essex through last week?
They do say Gary, that the cooling towers are not now structurally sound. (Mandy Rice-Davis again)
100,000 tonnes of biocoal must be equivalent to to a greater weight of wood. How much does a wet fast-growing pine tree weigh? How many hectares do 1,000 trees cover?
It sounds like magic, saved only because of the certain renewable nature of the process.
A tree grows by taking CO2 from the atmosphere [leaving soil nutrition to one side...for now] and turning this into combustible wood....
Really, the sticking point is the low-in-carbon (compared to what?) and the acreage. Then there is Global Warming, how is that to change the growth of such "forestry products"?
All of which is small-beer compared with the phrase, "Green Energy Park". Everything nowadays has to have the name of some comic book Super-Hero.
