A crash course in changing the world.
My second Evokation:
The creation of a solid fuel green energy and recycling business
The first Evokation that I came up with was an amazing idea and one that will have to become essential with
the passage of time in the western world, namely that of recycling
heat using the Seeback effect to create electricity. However, if (and
only IF) the purpose of an evockation is to create local change, I
have another idea that might be easier to implement.
Manufacture of pellets for solid fuel in the South Midlands of the UK.
Wood pellets are a highly efficient fuel that has the calorific energy similar to that of coal. Pellets
can also be made from other biomass materials and would also have
similar calorific properties. One overlooked form of biomass fuel is
that of paper. Many companies get rid of old records that are a
certain number of years old and as such require security destruction
of the paper and cardboard records. It makes business sense to both
charge for the collection of the paper records and then pulverise
them as a form of security destruction.
A business of this type would require a few things.
Macinery:
Paper pulveriser / powderer
Pellet maker
Wood chip maker (to prepare wood in case we cant get paper)
Bagging machine / sack making and heat sealing machine.
Driving staff and vans may also be needed.
Materials:
Heavy Duty plastic sacking
Wood / wood chips.
Waste paper to be pulverised / powdered and then turned into paper pellets.
Fuel to run the machines.
Factory type premises would be needed to operate the machinery in.
The revenues streams for the business would be
Paper collection
Retail of pellets
Wh***sale of pellets to other pellet distributors.
The secondary revenue streams would stem from strategic partnerships and would entail:
Resale of indoor stoves and boilers from other manufacturers so that both revenue and local client base can be built up.
Sale of small fan assisted camping stoves primarily for revenue raising and to be visibly attractive marketing tools when promoting the business
Resale of imbert downdraft gasifiers for land owners who wish to make their own electricity via an internal combustion generator.
Marketing would include press releases local and national, appearance at country fairs and trade shows, door
canvassing wealthy areas and doing leaflet drops in target areas +
having a regular shopping centre or market stall.
If I was to receive money from the World bank to set the business up, it would be mainly spent on the
factory and the machinery, with some ploughed back to cover expenses
in operation during the first year, as well as some for a marketing
budget.
