..could be they don't know yet, or more likely, they haven't decided
yet, they say they started out in 2009 in the their eco village.
But go ask them. ;o)
..30 kW electric and 80 kW thermal is a good easy size to learn how
to do gasification business, nearly all successful gasifiers started
out around this size, so you're up and going with a viable business
before you start messing with other sizes, scaling down from here is
_way_ different from scaling up from here.
..that said,I'm struggling to understand their gasifier, is
it simply an open top hearth thing??? Their ash grate cone
jack idea looks familiar. ;o)

Scenarios always come in sets of three:
best case, worst case, and just in case.
