Interesting but I'm skeptical that they would develop this if they could simply convert a NG turbine and it would only be 2x less efficient.
It's more like the Jupiter 1 "fuel consumption" for 30mw output can be way overestimated.
More technical description is combustion is 50% as efficient as a fuel cell. It is very significant difference.
