NetPower can indeed be a game changer. They just announced they are building a grid scale 300 MW plant in Odessa. The great thing about NetPower is that it does not cost extra to capture the CO2 because it is an intricate part of the process. It burns Natural Gas in pure oxygen and uses CO2 to turn the turbine. It is cheaper to build, smaller footprint, and more efficient.

I am betting on the private sector for energy innovation, with light-handed, well-informed regulation to keep them honest.
