RE:Finally Again agree with Tamarack about future. By 2030 there is no question that there will be a transition in fuel from present fossil fuels, especially diesel because of the polluting effect of the particulate emissions without addressing the CO2 emissions. The transition will be to electric, hydrogen fuel cells, RNG. Xebec will have an obvious contribution to hydrogen with HyGEAR producing Green Hydrogen when using RNG, RNG itself as a seamless transition from fossil natural gas The percentage of RNG can be incrementally increased without any changes in the infrastructure for the storage and transport of RNG, or any changes in the present machinery to produce heat, cooking, power plant fuel, all the present day uses of fossil natural gas that can transition to RNG without any modifications. Looking at transportation, Total Electric and Fuel Cell technology would take years to develop the infrastructure, charging stations, Green Hydrogen production using electrolysis of water at wind/solar/hydro farms. All this would have to be done before the first over the road truck tried to go from California to New York. Besides the fact that there are no comercially available total electric or fuel cell heavy duty trucks available today. The BIG problem, however, is replacing the Internal Combustion Engine and all the manufacturing, service, and maintenance related to the ICE. Not to mention the job losses from that industry without the Internal Combustion Engine. Using technology from Westport Fuel Systems, all cars, trucks, buses, ships, etc. can be converted to RNG using their existing Internal Combustion Engines and the long established industry devoted to manufacture, maintenance, and service of the ICE. No need for complete retooling for electric motors, complete transition of service for electric vehicles that haven't been built yet and have little if any potential to provide the range, power, torque, or freight load capacity of the ICE. A WPA like effort to identify and develop all waste sites with a biostream to produce RNG is a real possibility. Kurt stated that 85% of the identifiable waste sites could be serviced by one or two Biostream units. Westport is also developing an internal combustion engine to run on hydrogen. HyGEAR can produce Green Hydrogen from RNG. These answers to Global Warming and devastating pollution from diesel fuel are in place today.
And none of this has anything to do with the significant potential income stream from Inamtec and the realization that the massive amount of oxygen that hospitals need for present and future respiratory pandemics can be produced cheaper and more economically by generating their own on site oxygen using Inamtec generators.
