Your concept may combine well with Dr. Salter's cloud seeding ship approach.
Check with some stakeholders in ship propulsion systems - the people making kite sails for cargo ships, California Air Pollution Control Board, cargo ship operators. Have handy some dimensions for the 1MW and

This is not actually correct. They found a 1.5 K cooling averaged over
a 30 year period. I am not an expert in their science, so don't know
what the error bar is on this, but this does not preclude a very large
cooling for 5 years which could have been catastrophic.
