If anyone is interested https://www.microgen.com (a BG offshoot) will launch a product in 2007.
Also, apologies, but I had it the wrong way round: the engine generates electricity and the excess heat is used to create hot water, heating etcAn eye for eye, and we'll all be blind - Mahatma Ghandi

Martin asked me to say I'm a volunteer Board Guide on the Utilities board, facilitating its smooth running. I can move & change posts there. However I do not read every post.

In one of the regulations it says that if you generate electricity, and you make more than you use, your supplier is required to buy it back at the same cost as they supply you. So if you do this, your meter goes backwards by the net amount.
Which is why Sterling Engines are very interesting! Cheap leccy and free heating / hot water.
