Why do you think WindFuels can be scaled up to the level needed to cut global carbon emissions in half by mid-century?
About 80% of the subsystems and components needed (or very closely related components) are currently in production at the multi-billion-dollar level by multiple, international companies. And there are fairly close relatives of most of the rest of the components currently in production at the multi-billion-dollar level. Scale-up will require very large investments, but they will come because there will soon be no question about the profitability of the WindFuels plants. Scale-up will also take time, mostly because huge investments are never made quickly. However, scale up of the processes used in Windfuels is much easier than those in cellulosic ethanol or algal oil. Read more.
