Seems to be about 5 years too late as a story.

No. It is now out of the lab and now ready for production. At £1,500 to
£2,000 initially, it is the price of a quality gas boiler. And will cost
half of what? Of what electricity cost to heat the house? If half of what
gas is then this is a breakthrough. Then if a gas powered Stirling unit is
used to generate the electricity, then maybe even cheaper to run, like 1/8
to 1/4 of current gas costs.
