RE:GREEN PLASMA TORCHES BY THOUSANDS...NOT SO FAST!Raph, you are not quire right.
In Quebec qhere PYR is based almost electricity produced is hydroelectricity. The original request for the plasma torch was from Sweeden and they have an abundance of Hydroelectricity. Same in Norway. France is produced for the most part from atomic generators. And they are going for close to 100% where possible. In Canada, BC is Hydro, Ontario is about half atomic, and more being planned; and about 10% Hydro.
Dont kick the torches in the garbage bin, Please.

It is no secret that almost all of the electricity available in the world is associated with the generation of 0.50 to 1.0 kg of CO2/kWh, depending on whether gas or coal is burned to produce it.
So unless you're plugging your plasma torch into a renewable hydroelectric plant or a nuclear plant...forget this pipe dream of selling by the thousands.
I can't believe that Rodayna Kafal (a graduate engineer?) and Steve McCormick (who should know the rules of the market) let 3P spread such madness.
Do your DD...Electricity is too much valuable to be used for heating, especially when it produces more CO2 than gaz.
