Expert has experience with alternative energy product development, especially community and village systems that integrate low cost electrical power production, greenhouse farming of food for direct human consumoption, and local community outreach. He can design such systems based on the site's capabilities, the client's objectives, and the project budget.. Solar thermal. wind turbine, hydroelectric, and waste utilization components and systems are under devekopment and have been researched on cost and performance.

Expert has done some personal work to design three type options of an alternative energy fueled electric power plant for a small planned community (2,350 pop.) in Africa needing his alternative energy and community development design and costing assistance. Type A was designed for a methane digester fueled internal combustion engine gen set, Type B for a manure waste fueled steam boiler electric plant, and Type C for a methane digester fueled gas micro turbine. After design completion, he took multiple bids for the various plant components.

The Micro Energy Plant, is Expert's new product design using the same alternative fuels mentioned above in paragraph one for its operation and as renewable energy sources. This innovation is a portable electric power plant that is especially useful where no electric grid exists, within a region of low cost fuel supplies, and/or within areas of substantial energy shortage or expensive fuels.

Expert M. Expert believes that solar thermal distributed power systems are the lowest cost systems buildable next to the bottom cost system of headless micro-hydro where no dam or drop in water elevation is needed. The problem with micro-hydro is that the sites having adequate water flow on site are few in many areas.

Recently appraised the damages to a rural recreational and residential property in Iowa due to activities of adjacent property owners that altered its nature and suitabilities.Completed a community development plan for a large subdivision near Branson, Missouri, that included roads, recreational lakes, parks, lots layout, and access.Designed a 70 kW distributed electric power plant for a proposed community of 2,350 near Luwero, Uganda, that utilizes both human and animal waste to generate methane and serve an alternator with a remanufactured internal combustion Cat engine all for about $1.00/watt installed with volunteer labor.
