Solar Fire Proposal

Collaboration between the world's first, replicable solar dish - Solar Fire - OSE - and CoHabitat Group - Tinytech for integrating uniflow steam power and space heating for a year round, superinsulated CEB greenhouse.

• Complete open source documentation released within 6 months of Prototype Completion and testing
• Base technology of Solarfire 32
• Materials cost for Solarfire minus tracking and minus steam engine and minus hail protection is $60 per square meter for structure, mirrors, and receiver (32*60=~$2000 materials cost)
  • Assumes cost of production of finished system is 50% materials and 50% labor)
• Expected steam engine cost $500 for materials only
• OSE provides 7 hp uniflow steam engine
• CoHabitat provides architecture for superinsulated greenhouse
• Tinytech provides parallel production for Asia
