You have good arguments.
anyway, using the grid, or local grid, to average the production capacity,
might be interesting.
because most of the cost of e-cat/hyperion is not in fuel, or even
refueling, but in building the plant.
so reducing the total capacity, will reduce the cost.
anyway the grid

I mean they are still nominally *more expensive* than fossil fuel, because
we do not take into account the cost of pollution or global warming.
