| Kinetic Overgrowth exemplifies net positive closed loop sustainable energy systems. Technology and modern design are optimized to enhance function in biological and mechanical symbiosis. Regional natural energy sources are harvested, converted, and fed to an algal bioreactor, and the excess is diverted to local towns. Strikingly different from a typical power plant, this system converts pollution (CO2), societal wastes (grey water runoff) and ambient environmental energy sources (solar, wind, and gravitational energy) into a commercially ready energy in the form of raw biodiesel and electricity, all while increasing water quality. With the available space, the system is scalable to generate in upwards of 6 MegaWatt-hrs a day; enough power to cultivate over 260 Kilotons of biodiesel a year, meet the energy demands of emerging energy technology platforms, and reduce reliance on coal fed power plants. The energy produced can be equivalent to removing 2.400 homes from the power grid. |
