11. Costs 18’ x 10’ x 24’ greenhouse: $4,450
60- 10” x 6 ft acrylic tubes = $3,760
Air pump=$
CO2 supply $500
Plumbing= $3,000
Floor and sill= $600
Extraction process= $4,000
Installation= 40 m-hr @$20/hr= $800
TOTAL = $17110, rounded up to $20k 11
12. Summary Projection and hopes:
If capital and installation costs = $20k;
operating costs = $20/month or 100/year
And oil production is 400 gal/season, over a 15 yr period oil would be $3.58/gal. (Maine oil cost today is 3.24)
20 years = $2.75 gal.
KEY POINT-SELF SUFFICIENT! 12
