Hi , folks! I'm thinking for quite a while about a business case of power generation on a farm - or in a rural area. Let's suppose that I'm a farmer with 200 acres. I grow canola - then press it into oil. So, if I get a harvest of 200 tons of canola seeds, I press it into 200,000 litters of canola oil. Then I have a pond and beside it a few 100 kWh diesel generators. So I power them with oil and use pond water for cooling. The question is - how many generators can I have and how much power (and money) I can make by selling electricity to a local utility, using canola oil which I grow on my farm? Regards, Alex Yahoo!
