The GEK Gasifier converts woody biomass to producer gas. The TOTTI is an additional heat reuse module that enables much cleaner gas production from the gasifier. The Power Pallet combines the GEK Gasifier with the TOTTI, an engine, a generator, and sophsticated control electronics to convert woody biomass to gas and then to elecity. Unfortunately chicken litter is not compatible with any of the above products as described in this FAQ entry. Kind regards, ALL Power Labs Customer Support

I am interested to buy a 20 kW gasifier feeded by chiken manure.
So I would like to know if your gasifier is running by manure.

More, I would like to know the differeces between the Power Pallets and Totti plant.

Best regards

Our Sales team will contact you soon regarding the project in Liberia. The Power Pallet is definitely economical when compared to the price of electricity from diesel generators, due to the high price of diesel and of transporting diesel fuel to remote locations. At this time, we can not offer a single Power Pallet delivering 60-80kW. Our largest shipping unit is the 20kW Power Pallet. We do have a working prototype 100kW gasifier, which we call the PowerTainer, which was designed as a research project for the University of Minnesota. The University's Jim Barbour made this excellent presentation about the project at the Bioenergydays conference. For Village projects, a small group of Power Pallets can offer several advantages over a single, larger generator:

smaller units are easier to transport into difficult locations than a single, very heavy device
having multiple units allows you to experiment with biomass feedstocks (types, particle sizes, preparation methods) simultaneously
distributing generation over smaller units can reduce the amount of wiring and make the system more resilient to disruption
the engines, generator, and parts used in the smaller Power Pallets are easier to find and install; larger units are generally built around engines requiring special parts and very skilled mechanics

I’ve found a very good unit for combining the output of multiple sets, fixed import, Peak import, Fixed export, Excess export to the grid.

I don’t work for the company or have an affiliation.
the one thing I really like about the unit is how simple and easy it is to cascade.

hope it’s of some use, there are also lots of downloadable support documents.

Keep up the great work

Great news indeed!

I have been following your (impressive) progress for years, but the missing link, for me, has always been the ability to (easily) grid tie. I have built off-grid micro hydro, and the problems of connecting 5-50kW hydro system to the grid are similar, so I am impressed with your solution, and its price tag.

This constitutes the last major barrier to using these things for a small renewable energy business, without having to invent things from scratch.

I look forward to seeing how you now apply this thinking to the 100kW system!

Paul in BC
