Wow, fascinating on many levels, technical, economic, political. The idea of US Steel's new investment should encourage many and counter a general feeling of game over that seems to exist. Turning those ancient flares into useful power has to be a boon. Twain's quip that reports of his death were greatly exaggerated might be a caution to Graydon's repeated calls for closing the mills.

The solar option always seems too expensive although i wonder whatever happened to the solar shingle idea. In theory it should work. I seem to recall some kind of US based (DOE?) effort to develop small package cogen systems but lost track of the research when I gave up on the idea. Maybe Undustrial has heard of something.
