I am excited about this technology and concept, I hope Michigan benefits, especially the City of Detroit. If we soon have a vacant Renaissance Center maybe they could hook it up with this VIVACE system and offer it as a free energy building powered by the river! I'm a dreamer, but hey, dreaming is free right?
