Electricity from heat. Option from ElectraTherm

    ElectraTherm has developed a prototype electric generator that uses heat as raw material to generate electricity. Thus, the Green Machine (as the generator was called in ElectraTherm) can solve two problems at once: obtaining cheap electricity (three to four cents per kW / h) and recycling industrial waste, which includes heat.


    Another advantage of the Green Machine generator is its relative, compared to conventional heat turbines, simplicity of design and, accordingly, low cost. Well, do not forget that to obtain energy with its help it is not necessary to burn fossil fuels. Those. It is a source of renewable energy.

    In general, ElectraTherm announced its development very on time. The US government believes that generating electricity by utilizing industrial heat will soon surpass all other renewable energy sources. So, when in mid-June ElectraTherm starts mass production of its Green Machine, there are likely to be customers for them.
