99 -- Commercialization Opportunity for low temperature power cycle technology

OFFICIAL ADDRESS: Tennessee Valley Authority, Environmental Research Center, Reservation Road, Muscle Shoals, AL 35662 SUBJECT: COMMERCIALIZATION OPPORTUNITY FOR LOW TEMPERATURE POWER CYCLE TECHNOLOGY DESC: The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) intends to license, on an exclusive and/or non-exclusive basis, a technology related to the production of power using a very simple and compact power cycle designed to be cost competitive on low temperature (~200 - 1,000 degrees F) heat sources (patent number 6,751,959 B1). Specifically, a simple, compact, and relatively efficient, supercritical thermodynamic power cycle system and process for extracting heat from a heat source and converting a portion of the heat to mechanical power using working fluids other than water/steam. Potential licensees or buyers should express interest in the technology in writing by mail or fax to TVA no later than May 6, 2005, including a brief statement of your experience and capabilities to commercialize the technology. An information package is available to interested parties. TVA's Research & Technology Applications staff will be available on a fee basis for technology engineering and commercialization support. Reply and requests for additional information should be directed to Tracey R. Willingham, Contract Agent, Services Contracts, Post Office Box 1010, CTR 2U, Muscle Shoals, Alabama 35662-1010, Telephone +1 (555) 000-0000, Fax +1 (555) 000-0000.
