Re: Zero Emission Coal Fired Energy -- What would you pay?

Up here we have a tinkerer using a plasma arc to convert garbage into gas which gets burnt to drive a generator - to produce electricity and water and a glass/clinker that traps the toxins. No pollution released.  -Plasco- I asked them if they could vaporize tar sand but they haven't answered. 

Apparently, they use 20% of the energy to run the system.  If that is the case Canadians may be able to open up the tar sands- but selling electricity is sure different than selling oil.  That could explain why Can Govs are turning the electrical system over to the private sector. They will still be able to set the retail price and control the economy.
