Green Lightning’s Fertilizer Claim Doesn’t Add Up
Green Lightning really does make nitrogen fertilizer from air and electricity, but it makes very little of it compared with what its marketing says it can replace. Nitrogen is not merely something that encourages a plant to grow.
AI Summary
Green Lightning produces nitrogen fertilizer by extracting nitrogen from air and powering the process with electricity. The company’s marketing claims suggest it can replace large amounts of conventional fertilizer, but the actual output is far smaller. The nitrogen produced becomes part of the plant itself, integrating into proteins, chlorophyll, and other essential molecules. This highlights a discrepancy between the company’s advertised capacity and its real production scale.
