Agreements like these (unproved technology) generally involve a low up front licensing fee with a significant per unit royalty. I would guess it to be something like Tesla's agreement with Westinghouse.
If it was truly free and you can sell a 10 kilowatt hours for a buck, it would not be unreasonable to ask for twenty cents. Of course it's not truly free. T On Thu, Apr 1, 2010 at 1:21 PM, Stephen A.
