Anyone know anything about these, or the technology employed ? I
dunno, but
it feels like one of those "If it seems too good to be true ....
" things. Or
is it just another company jumping on the eco-bollox bandwagon ?

How does the bioler generate electricity ?

Well, that's what I was asking, and if you follow the whole thread,
there's been several references to a URL where it is all explained. I
can't be fagged to go and find it for you, but it won't take you long to
look. It's actually a bit backwards thinking of it as a boiler that
makes electricity as a waste heat-recycling byproduct of it's CH / DHW
function. Rather, it's a gas-powered electricity generator, that
produces enough waste and recoverable heat from *that* process, to allow
it to also heat your house. Theoretically, that is. How practical it
would actually be for the many different designs of house, varying
weather conditions around the country, and lots of other modifying
factors, is a bit of an unknown, at this point. Much like solar PVPs, a
lot of the 'savings' that would supposedly be reaped from the
installation of such a device, rely on the subsidised *FIT model, and
I'm not sure just how sustainable that is going to be in both the
current economic, as well as political, climates. Add to this that
recent events in the MM *global warming world would seem to indicate
that that little bubble may be close to bursting, and scales might start
falling from eyes, and the long-term non-viability of all the green
taxing and subsidising at the tax payers expense, might start to take on
a political life of its own ...

It gets worse...

Consider the proposition that last centuries warming had little or
nothing to do with human activity or CO2 and in fact was mere
statistical fluctuations in a completely normal interglacial that is
likely to end..soon. Plunging us into several degrees colder temperatures.

Not only is every penny then spent on renewable energy wasted, it has
furthermore reduced our ability to run the country effectively in the
colder and wetter times ahead.

We have essentially ruined the nation to solve a non-existent problem,
with a technology that didn't work to solve it, anyway...

It doesn't get worse than that. Well apart from harry, who profits by
this disaster.

Getting pretty hysterical TurNiP!
Can't understand what's going on in the world?
Ah well, dementia comes to many as they get old.

Most people don't want nuclear.

Most? *Not so fast Kimosabe ..

"The YouGov survey [...] found nearly two thirds of Britons (63%) now
back the use of nuclear energy as part of the UK’s energy mix"

Well I saw a recent one said 70% didn't want it.
Depends how you frame the question and who you ask anyway.
