where was the machine tested? If it was tested in somewhere more humid then the test data is invalid for use in arid areas where you'd actually need them. Also, that renewable energy is wood chips, so yeah it's renewable but in reality it's just fossil fuels without the "bury for millions of years" step. I'm not sure how that's meant to be an improvement, except perhaps that they can use local trees instead of bringing in other fuels.
