Thailand could use a few of these systems... very cool stuff... http://www.worldchanging.com/archives/005853.html

I believe Thailand has about 2,000 MW of Biomass systems that make "syngas" (Methane & CO2) used to make electrical power. Also, there's 78 MW Municipal Waste Plants making syngas & electricity. Other than hydro power, Biomass biggest renewable energy generator.

Solar PV power pants (On Grid) 3 MW, there is a group elite Thais in the power sector, both government & business, that are obstructing the implementation Solar PV power plants, they are only interested in selling Kilo-Watt-Hours from Natural Gas & Coal plants.

This same group are ones promoting Nuclear Power. From the NGO point of view it is nothing less than all out WAR against the self-serving special interests in the power sector who are selling out Thailand's chance for a Clean Energy sustainable future.

The countries that have an Energy Efficient economy based on low cost Renewable Energy will have the best quality of life for their people and the most investment from the private sector worldwide.

Good info Bruce! Unfortunately it sounds very much like the Thai way.....
