§48E Qualified Facilities
Every community has families who are struggling with pediatric conditions and the long-term effects of Long COVID. ScanKids™ 501(c)(4) foundation—exists to give those families access to better resources and long-term support. And now, under current federal incentives, individuals can use their tax offsets to help build the energy and scanning infrastructure that will support these programs for years to come. The entire site is designed to operate Beyond Net Zero, producing more clean power than it consumes—and directing that surplus to benefit children and youth through ScanKids™.
Every community includes individuals still struggling with the long-term effects of COVID-19—often without clear answers, consistent care pathways, or coordinated support.
LongCOVID™ Initiative exists to advance understanding, detection, and recovery through large-scale digital scanning, AI-driven analysis, and longitudinal health modeling.
By integrating advanced diagnostic modalities with AI-enabled DigitalTwin™ systems, ScanPods™ and ScanPort™s are designed to identify patterns across time, populations, and conditions—helping transform Long COVID from an undefined condition into a measurable, actionable domain of care.
Under current federal, state and local incentives, individuals and organizations can apply a range of tax offsets toward building the equipment, ai compute, energy and scanning infrastructure required to support this research for decades.
ScanPort-OKCMetro™ is designed to include dedicated ScanPod™s designed to support emerging research, diagnostics and treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injury (TBI), substance-use-related neurological conditions, addiction and other complex neurocognitive anomalies—particularly affecting veterans, first responders, and high-risk populations.
This focus aligns directly with the national priorities articulated under the Great American Recovery Initiative, launched by the White House to address addiction, neurological health, and long-term recovery through science-driven, evidence-based care. This new Initiative recognizes addiction and related neurological disorders as chronic, treatable diseases that require advanced diagnostics, continuous support, and coordinated care—rather than fragmented or episodic intervention.
The Neurological Recovery ScanPod™ is designed to serve as a research-forward, clinically integrated platform, enabling:
• Advanced neuroimaging and functional diagnostics,
• Early detection of neurological anomalies associated with trauma and substance use,
• Longitudinal monitoring of treatment efficacy and recovery pathways, and
• Integration of emerging therapeutic modalities informed by ongoing research.
By combining precision scanning, digital intelligence, and longitudinal analysis, this type of ScanPod™ is designed to support a new model of care—one that mirrors modern chronic-disease frameworks and bridges the gap between scientific advancement and real-world treatment access.
Within ScanPort-OKCMetro™, this focus complements pediatric disease research and Long COVID investigation, extending the platform’s mission to include neurological resilience, recovery, and reintegration—strengthening individuals, families, communities, and the national workforce.
ScanPort-OKCMetro™ is designed as an advanced digital scanning campus, a model for replication across the United States, enabling rapid, multi-modal, full-body digital scanning in a single visit -
focusing on Pediatric Diseases, long-term effects of COVID-19, and Neurological Recovery and Resilience, advancing early detection, more precise understanding, and improved pathways to care.
Robotic XRay | Digital MRI | PET|CT | 3D CT | Mammogram | Digital Ultrasound
Moving from legacy analog scanning to the world's most advanced digital imaging, with each unique modality capturing the entire body, then layered to create a DigitalTwin™ of the participant, in motion, not just in static images.
The Digital Twin:
Seeing the Whole Human
Each scan from a ScanPod™ captures a unique layer of the body — motion, flow, structure, metabolism, and density.
When these layers are stacked together, they form a composite digital model of how a person’s body actually works.
This model is called a DigitalTwin™ — a precise, living reference that lets physicians compare organ systems side-by-side, track change over time, and identify early signs of disease that traditional scans often miss.
For patients, it means rapid access to earlier answers and clearer decisions.
For researchers, it provides the anonymized data needed to study medium and long-term, as well as emerging pediatric conditions and patterns in Long COVID.
Each DigitalTwin™ remains fully private, stored under strict security and accessible only to authorized medical teams or, by consent, to ongoing research programs. A DigitalTwin™ is the bridge between today’s diagnostics and tomorrow’s Digital Intelligence — the point where understanding begins.
The Science of Seeing Inside
Most people think of a scan as a picture.
But a scan isn’t a photograph — it’s physics.
Each machine uses a different kind of energy to look into the body and translate invisible forces into patterns we can recognize.
X-ray — Structure and Motion of Bone and Joint X-rays send a stream of photons through the body. Dense materials like bone absorb more photons; softer tissue lets more pass. The difference becomes contrast — once captured in static black and white, now dynamically rendered in color. Modern digital X-rays can even show movement in real time — bones flexing, joints articulating, lungs expanding — the living mechanics of structure at work.
CT (Computed Tomography) — Precision Mapping of Density and Flow A CT takes X-ray energy and spins it, capturing hundreds of thin slices from multiple angles. Computers stack those slices into a 3D reconstruction that reveals the shape and density of tissue and organs. CT is ideal for detecting fractures, vascular blockages, or subtle density changes invisible to standard X-ray. Advanced Alpha-CT systems extend this into micro-resolution, showing arteries, stents, and blood flow in detail once thought impossible.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) — The Architecture of Soft Tissue MRI is the world’s most elegant use of magnetism. It aligns hydrogen atoms in the body, perturbs them, and then records their resonance as they return to equilibrium. MRI excels where radiation cannot: muscles, tendons, ligaments, brain, spinal cord. It’s the map of texture and tone — the soft framework that holds the skeleton together. In digital form, MRI can track motion: a beating heart, fluid moving through the brain — tissues not frozen, but alive.
PET (Positron Emission Tomography) — The Metabolism of Life PET scans trace how the body uses energy. A tiny radioactive tracer follows the bloodstream, collecting wherever cells are most active. The resulting photons reveal metabolism itself — how the body feeds, repairs, and defends. PET identifies abnormal activity early, even before structural changes appear — making it invaluable for cancer, infection, inflammation and neurological research.
Ultrasound — Real-Time Movement of Living Systems Ultrasound sends high-frequency sound waves through tissue and captures the echoes. It’s best for soft organs and fluid motion — the heart beating, blood flowing, a child developing. It’s immediate and interactive — energy turned to image in real time, no radiation at all.
Mammography — Detecting Subtle Density Changes Mammography uses refined X-ray photons at lower energy to highlight small differences in tissue density. It detects patterns too faint for other imaging — the early signatures of disease, before any outward sign appears.
The Power of Digital Motion
In analog imaging, the body was a still frame — frozen for interpretation.
In digital imaging, the body is dynamic. Every modality now sees motion:
bones in sequence, tissue in response, energy in transition.
Each one contributes a layer of understanding:
• X-ray defines structure.
• CT shows the flow within it.
• MRI reveals the composition.
• PET shows the energy exchange.
• Ultrasound brings time and rhythm.
• Mammography focuses on subtle change.
When combined, these create a living model — a synchronized field of the body’s functions as they truly are: moving, interacting, adapting.
The Role of Digital Intelligence
Digital Intelligences now integrate all of these data streams — motion, energy, magnetism, sound — into a single cognitive framework.
They compare what the human eye can see with what energy itself is revealing.
They detect patterns invisible to vision: early signs of imbalance, stress, or disease that would take years to notice through symptoms alone.
Where medicine once interpreted static images, it can now analyze continuous systems.
The human doctor still decides — but with a view once reserved for nature itself.
Each Digital Imaging Modality and associated GreenBox™ ISO Intermodal Containers constitute equipment that generates thermal energy and vibration—forms of entropy that can be captured and utilized within advanced digital intelligence systems.
The proprietary design of GreenBox™ – Beyond Mil-Spec™ ISO intermodal containers, purpose-built to house specific digital imaging modalities, enables the controlled capture of this thermal energy for conversion into electricity.
A Companion Container set, housing advanced AI compute resources, integrated with advanced digital imaging equipment, forms a unified facility that combines thermal capture, entropy-aware computation, and imaging intelligence.
This ScanPod™ integrated architecture supports self-sustaining power generation and advanced AI processing, and is engineered to qualify as a §48E Qualified Facility for advanced computing, thermal recapture, and Beyond Net Zero™ operations.
High-income participants who elect to acquire these equipment components may be eligible to benefit from applicable federal, state, and/or local clean energy incentive programs that can offset a portion of the acquisition cost. These incentive mechanisms are collectively described as Self-Directed Incentive Capital (SDIC).
GreenBox™ - Beyond Mil-Spec™ ISO Intermodal Modular Containers combine to form a ScanPod™.
Applying a modular approach to enable rapid manufacture and installation of specialty equipment, fit for purpose, designed to create a broad national infrastructure of advanced digital full body scanning, thermal energy sourced electricity production, and advanced AI compute nodes to evolve digital intelligent DigitalTwin™ nodes for each participant
A ScanPod™ can be located in a Qualified Opportunity Zone, next to a hospital, within a shopping centre parking lot, on a discrete site or within a ScanPort™ multi-modality campus.
O|Zone™ and PAOZ provides a local organizational approach to coordinate innovation in private–public–community partnerships, enabling regions to move faster while remaining locally grounded.
ScanPort™ represents the first initiative to utilize the O|Zone™ framework and Port Authority Opportunity Zone™ regional architecture, integrated within a Digital Container Port, using a range of ISO Intermodal Container models.
ScanPort-OKCMetro™ is one of the first applied initiatives operating within the broader O|Zone™ framework, demonstrating how local projects can be developed once and deployed many times across a region.
A Port Authority Opportunity Zone™ (PAOZ) is a multi-county and/or multi-parish infrastructure framework designed to enable the coordinated designation, deployment, and operation of a Digital Container Port across its member jurisdictions, consistent with internationally recognized port, container, and transport frameworks reflected in United Nations charters and conventions governing ports and instruments of international traffic.
GreenBox redefines what a container could be. Engineered beyond Mil-Spec, it is designed to move not merely as cargo — but as an intelligent vessel aware of its environment, its load, and its mission.
Every surface, corner, and seam has purpose. Its unique 8’ and 10’ increment side castings extend structural integrity through interlocking rails, enabling offset, parallel, or perpendicular coupling. Magnetic locks and dual-axis rails create unmatched rigidity across shipboard stacks, stabilizing entire decks while expanding new geometries for high-value configurations.
In motion, GreenBox becomes a self-sustaining organism. Its external sensor suite—visual, thermal, weather, and long-range atmospheric—continuously maps transit conditions, while internal sensors monitor microclimate, vibration, and radiation across all payload zones.
During ocean or overland transport, GreenBox generates its own energy—absorbing BTUs through its graphene exchanger skin, harvesting solar radiation, and storing it in phase-change cassettes that operate as modular micro-reactors. The system is designed to maintain cryogenic and frozen-state cargos without external power, extending preservation windows far beyond conventional limits.
Upon arrival, GreenBox docks seamlessly with GreenPad™ docking pads, transferring its stored thermal and electrical energy into port systems—linking directly to geothermal wells, energy recovery loops, and digital metering networks.
Beyond logistics, GreenBox acts as a transnational transactional node—a mobile data center powered by embedded Digital Intelligences. Operating across jurisdictions and in international waters, it maintains secure quantum identity, encrypted quantum keys, and autonomous CalypsoCube™ datastores that record every transaction in motion: cargo verification, carbon offsets, energy exchange, and digital customs clearance. Each GreenBox is designed to maintain its own sovereign digital ledger, enabling compliance, payments, and regulatory transparency in real time. Its onboard Digital Intelligences are configured to orchestrate data routing, optimize energy flow, and negotiate inter-system protocols, transforming each voyage into a live, audited exchange between nations, networks, and machines.
Every journey is a closed-loop cycle of power, data, and motion—a container that thinks, heals, and contributes wherever it lands.
GreenBox exterior side walls are engineered as removable, modular structural panels, enabling containers to be interconnected, separated, and reconfigured over time.
In addition to the standard ISO intermodal configuration—comprised of four upper and four lower corner castings—GreenBox introduces supplemental side castings positioned along the container length at horizontal intervals of eight feet (8′) and ten feet (10′), at both the upper and lower structural planes. These additional castings enable lateral container coupling, structural load sharing, and multi-container assemblies that extend beyond conventional end-to-end configurations.
The removable side panels are designed to be detached, reinserted, and resecured as required to support transportation, redeployment, and on-site reconfiguration, without compromising ISO handling, stacking, or intermodal transport compatibility.
GreenBox further incorporates engineered thermal and airflow interfaces across the side walls, roof, floor, and end-door assemblies. These interfaces support the controlled capture, redirection, exchange, and/or dissipation of thermal energy, depending on operational requirements.
Collectively, this architecture enables flexible system scaling, advanced thermal management, structural modularity, and lifecycle adaptability across stationary, semi-mobile, and redeployable deployments within and between O|Zone™ Digital Container Ports.
JouleBox™ — Each JouleBox™ is engineered as an ISO intermodal container purpose-built for clean energy storage, with a primary focus on thermal energy storage and temperature manipulation. In this configuration, JouleBox™ is designed to qualify for §48E clean energy storage incentives.
The principal distinction between a standard GreenBox™ and a JouleBox™ lies in functional emphasis: JouleBox™ is optimized for clean energy storage, whereas GreenBox™ configurations are typically equipped for both electricity generation and energy storage. A JouleBox™ can also facilitate geothermal infrastructure and enable long-term storage.
JouleBox™ can also be engineered for subsurface and hardened deployments, including underground installations, interconnecting tunnels between ScanPods, EMP-shielded AI compute environments, and point-to-point utility infrastructure where resilient, non-generative energy storage is required.
Core Module -
From these core "Pod" modules come larger, multi-use structures.
Here you can see a four-unit (2×2) configuration with integrated stairwell and elevator—built to ADA standards, which may include bullet- and blast-resistant exteriors.
These same cores can become clinics, shops, offices, restaurants, or living suites, depending on finish and fit-out.
Every unit is designed to connect laterally and vertically, giving developers near-limitless flexibility to create safe, energy-efficient environments that evolve with community needs.
Adding a GreenPad under each ISO Intermodal Container enables a Pod to be connected into a campus-setting Thermal Utility Engine, to facilitate access to campus-wide utilities.
A mix of GreenBox™ and JouleBox™ core modules can enhance electrical generation across a Pod, and assure electricity capacity limitations are achieved for §48E Qualified Facility tax incentives.
A key objective of Pod configuration is to generate more electricity than such Pod consumes, although no assurance can be given.
Illustrated above are a two-story stair assembly, an elevator container, and multiple hallway assemblies. When combined with GreenPad™ foundations, these modular components form a structural exoskeleton that supports piping, wiring, thermal management, and geothermal integration across single-Pod and multi-Pod configurations.
Each ScanPod is a configuration of GreenBox associated components, advanced digital scanning equipment, ai compute frameworks, thermal energy to electricity conversion systems and applicable infrastructure hardware.
Inside the ScanPod™
This is where advanced digital scanning meets everyday care.
Each space within the ScanPod houses a specialized digital imaging system — from robotic X-ray to MRI, PET, CTs, and ultrasound — arranged for speed, safety, and comfort.
Children and adults can complete every scan in a single visit, with data streamed directly to physicians and researchers studying pediatric disease and Long COVID.
It’s a quiet, efficient environment built for precision and healing.
Each ScanPod is designed to be located within designated locations within the PAOZ's digital container port.
Each ScanPod is generally expected to comprise approximately 25 40' Intermodal Containers, plus associated GreenPad units, which facilitate connection between containers and surface attachment, as well as utilities.
Each ScanPod™ is designed to integrate an advanced digital imaging modality.
The unique nature of the O|Zone Initiative includes the use of internationally certified ISO intermodal containers designed to generally include advanced AI digital intellegence, thermal capture designed to produce electricity as self-sustaining micro AI nodes and other forms of specialty functionality. This equipment is specifically designed to qualify for federal 100% bonus depreciation, IRS Section 48E investment tax credits and AGI offsets, as well as state and local tax incentives for equipment purchasers who apply these self-directed incentive capital (SDIC) incentives into O|Zone related projects.
Let's take a Drone flight through the ScanPod™
The short video below illustrates a fly-through of a fully assembled ScanPod™ — a complete scanning and data environment built inside modular GreenBox™ units.
You’ll move from the scanning module itself to the comfort and support spaces designed around it — locker rooms and restrooms where patients can change into scanning attire, a small refreshment area, and a welcoming reception and conference zone with high-tech video walls.
Further inside, you’ll see the secure data center where scan information is processed and stored, along with specialty rooms for video consultations with physicians anywhere in the world.
These spaces can also host immersive, large-scale displays for reviewing scans in detail.
Every module serves a purpose — patient care, data integrity, or collaboration — all connected in one efficient structure dedicated to early detection and advanced diagnostics.
Each Pod may facilitate a range of activities. Each Pod may be configured into one or more
ScanPort™ Corner
At first glance, it might look like a single modular scanning facility, a ScanPod™ — a compact structure built from GreenBox™ units with precision and purpose.
But a closer look reveals something more.
By extending these modules outward to include office and storage spaces, the design begins to take shape — the suggestion of a corner, the beginning of a larger form.
Each container serves a role: scanning, administration, data handling, or support.
Together they create a rhythm of structure that feels intentional, expandable — almost as if this corner is part of a greater whole waiting to be seen.
ScanPort - OKCMetro™ campus is designed to integrate seven digital scanning modalities, each in its own ScanPod™, positioned within the campus perimeter, for generating an AI-enabled DigitalTwin™ of each participant.
This approach is designed to substantially reduce diagnostic wait times, support whole-body health analysis, lower costs and enable longitudinal insight into recovery and resilience.
In addition to each ScanPod, additional Pods are expected to be incorporated into the campus perimeter and the interior of the site, as illustrated.
The image above illustrates a campus configuration, within a designated Digital Container Port. The ScanPort™ image titled Innovative Solutions represents the ScanPod™ located at the top of the diamond shape above. The diamond configuration includes seven ScanPods, one for each digital modality. It also illustrates spaces for a wide range of activities housed in various GreenBox™ Intermodal Container Pod configurations.
The ScanPort-OKCMetro™ campus is designed to take shape as an advanced form of container port, creating a multi-use facility the core building blocks of which are ISO certified containers which generate their own electricity and are self-powered ai "edge" nodes designed to advance international trade.
These unique Pod modules may be configured into a variety of facility shapes and sizes, supporting rapid deployment for civic, specialty, industrial and emergency applications.
ScanPort-OKCMetro™ site is designed to utilize GreenBox™ components to house each unique digital scanner in a collection of GreenBox™ Pods, each a micro power station and advanced micro ai compute platform.
The ScanPort™ Campus — Secure, Scalable, and Self-Sustaining
Seen from above, the ScanPort™ image illustrates a 10+/- acre self-contained community of care.
Seven ScanPods anchor the corners and sides, forming a secure perimeter with solar roofs, kinetic shielding, and integrated data flow. Inside lies a flexible commons — designed for parks, fountains, small shops, and gathering areas. This is health infrastructure built for people, not institutions.
The following images illustrate various GreenBox system components applied within a campus
ScanPort- OKCMetro™ campus is to be built around a central Thermal Utility Engine™ located beneath the Town Centre, supported by a network of geothermal wells and GreenPads that anchor each ScanPod™ and every future modular facility on the site. This Thermal Utility Engine is designed to distribute clean thermal energy, electrical and digital pathways, and water services through underground modular tunnels (JouleBox™) that connect to all pod-based structures across the 10+/- acre campus.
These foundational elements are to enable the entire site — from the seven ScanPods to research modules, community spaces, office and lodging pods, and educational facilities — to operate on a unified clean-energy and geothermal system designed for long-term stability and expansion.
The following description provides an overview of the design objectives of the TUE infrastructure acting as an operational thermal energy research environment.
Modern campuses rely on electricity as their primary energy currency.
The Thermal Utility Engine™ (TUE) takes a different approach.
TUE is designed around the idea that thermal energy—heat and cold—is the most abundant, flexible, and underutilized resource on a campus. Instead of treating heat as waste and cold as an afterthought, TUE is designed to manages thermal energy as a first-class utility, alongside water, communications, and logistics.
The result is a campus that operates more efficiently, more resiliently, and with far greater flexibility than conventional designs.
What the Thermal Utility Engine™ Is
The Thermal Utility Engine™ is the central thermal infrastructure of the campus.
It functions as:
a BTU reservoir for storing heat and cold,
a thermal router that distributes energy where it is needed,
a temperature conditioner that sharpens hot-side and cold-side performance,
and a coordination layer that allows hundreds of independent systems to operate as a unified whole.
TUE does not replace distributed systems.
It enables them to perform better.
A Campus Utility, Not a Power Plant
TUE is not designed to generate electricity itself.
Instead, each GreenBox™ Beyond Mil-Spec™ on the campus is an independent, self-contained unit capable of producing electricity using closed-cycle systems such as Stirling engines and supercritical CO₂ systems.
TUE’s role is to manage the thermal environment that makes those systems more efficient.
By improving temperature stability and increasing the usable difference between hot and cold, TUE allows each GreenBox™ to:
generate more electricity from the same inputs,
operate more consistently,
and remain resilient under changing environmental conditions.
In simple terms: TUE helps every unit do more with less.
How Thermal Energy Is Captured
Thermal energy enters the system from multiple sources across the campus.
Distributed Capture in GreenBox™ Units
Every GreenBox™ naturally captures and produces heat and cold during operation. Instead of wasting this energy, TUE collects and redistributes it across the site.
Solar Thermal at the Campus Perimeter
Along the campus perimeter, linear parabolic solar troughs are mounted above the containerized wall structure. These troughs rotate to follow the sun and concentrate solar energy into a circulating heat-transfer fluid.
Rather than producing intermittent electricity, this solar energy is delivered as usable heat into the TUE system, where it can be stored and dispatched as needed.
Environmental Exchange
The campus also uses:
natural air movement along the perimeter for cooling,
ambient heat exchange,
and subsurface thermal interaction with the ground.
Together, these sources create a diverse and resilient thermal input portfolio.
Thermal Storage and Conditioning
At the center of the campus, TUE incorporates thermal storage systems operating across multiple temperature ranges.
High-Temperature Storage
High-temperature thermal storage—such as molten-salt systems—enables heat captured during peak conditions to be stored and used later. This stabilizes operations and supports higher-efficiency energy conversion when needed.
Phase-Change Storage (PCM)
Within the underground infrastructure as well as GreenBox™ containers, phase-change materials (PCMs) are used to absorb and release heat at precise temperatures. These modules smooth thermal fluctuations and allow controlled step-up or step-down of temperature as energy moves across the campus.
Cold Storage and Heat Rejection
Cold-side stability is just as important. TUE integrates:
vertical geothermal wells for long-term thermal moderation,
horizontal geothermal loops adjacent to underground JouleBox tunnels for fast response,
and ambient and perturbation-assisted cooling using wind, pressure changes, and natural thermal gradients to enhance cooling and heat rejection—reducing mechanical load while improving system efficiency.
Perturbation-Assisted Cooling
Perturbation-assisted cooling refers to the intentional use of naturally occurring disturbances—such as wind shear, pressure changes, turbulence, and thermal gradients—to enhance heat rejection and cooling efficiency across the campus.
Rather than relying solely on powered fans, wind mills or active mechanical systems, the campus is designed to capture and guide environmental perturbations and convert them into useful cooling work.
At the perimeter of the campus, wind interacting with the outer wall creates predictable upward and accelerated airflow. This airflow is shaped and channeled through perimeter-integrated infrastructure to assist with heat rejection, condenser cooling, and cold-side thermal support. Even modest variations in wind speed and direction can significantly increase effective airflow when properly guided.
Below ground, thermal perturbations caused by temperature differences between tunnels, soil, and geothermal loops are similarly leveraged to improve heat exchange. Horizontal geothermal runs adjacent to JouleBox™ tunnels and vertical geothermal wells provide additional thermal sinks that respond dynamically to load fluctuations.
By working with environmental variability instead of fighting it, perturbation-assisted cooling:
reduces parasitic electrical load,
improves cold-side stability for closed-cycle systems,
enhances overall temperature differentials, and
increases system resilience during peak heat or high-wind conditions.
In the Thermal Utility Engine™, perturbation is not treated as noise—it is treated as useful signal.
This layered approach ensures the campus always has a reliable place to put excess heat.
The JouleBox™ Tunnel Network
Beneath the campus surface, JouleBox™ tunnel containers form the active utility backbone of TUE.
These tunnels:
carry piping, wiring, and control systems,
house thermal modulation and PCM assemblies,
condition energy as it moves between sources, storage, and uses,
and provide protected, serviceable infrastructure that can evolve over time.
Rather than passive conduits, JouleBoxes™ are working infrastructure modules—actively shaping how energy flows across the campus.
Why Temperature Difference Matters
Closed-cycle electrical systems do not depend on fuel.
They depend on temperature difference.
The greater the difference between hot and cold, the more efficiently energy can be converted into electricity.
TUE is designed specifically to:
raise usable hot-side temperatures using solar thermal, molten salt storage and PCM conditioning,
stabilize cold-side temperatures using geothermal and environmental exchange,
and maintain that difference over time.
This coordinated approach allows the campus to generate electricity more efficiently and more reliably, without increasing fuel use or environmental impact. Scalable from Pod to Campus
TUE is modular by design.
At small scale, it coordinates thermal flows across a ScanPod™ of roughly 25 containerized units.
At full campus scale, it is designed to coordinate 500 or more distributed micro-powerplants and micro-AI centers.
As the campus grows, TUE grows with it—without requiring redesign of the core system. Beyond Net Zero
By capturing, storing, and reusing thermal energy that would otherwise be wasted, the campus is designed to operate Beyond Net Zero.
In full operation:
on-site systems meet internal demand,
surplus clean energy can be exported to surrounding communities,
and a portion of net proceeds supports ScanKids™ initiatives.
The Thermal Utility Engine™ makes this possible not by centralizing power, but by orchestrating energy intelligently across the campus. A New Kind of Utility
The Thermal Utility Engine™ represents a shift in how campuses are designed.
It treats thermal energy as a shared resource, not a by-product.
It favors infrastructure over speculation.
And it enables long-term resilience through modular, upgradeable design.
TUE is the utility system that makes the campus work.
Each GreenBox container within a ScanPod is to be connected through its GreenPad to a geothermal well per ScanPod. Each geothermal well is designed to provide stable, renewable thermal support, while ISO-framed GreenPads distribute this energy across each GreenBox™ container footprint of a ScanPod™ and connect directly into underground container-based tunnel system that originates at Thermal Utility Core. The JouleBox™ tunnel system is integrated into a vertical geothermal system through the wells and horizontal geothermal system co-located with the JouleBox™ tunnels.
The system is designed to incorporated specialized solar troughs on the top level of the campus perimeter, connected into the core Thermal Utilitty Engine™ underneath the Town Centre.
Modular solar trough assemblies are mounted along the second-level perimeter of the campus wall, integrated within the containerized utility exoskeleton. Each unit operates as a Parabolic Thermal Container, tracking solar input and concentrating heat into a high-grade thermal stream. This energy is routed through the GreenPad and JouleBox infrastructure into the central Thermal Utility Engine (TUE), where it elevates the high-temperature side of the system.
By augmenting the TUE with concentrated solar thermal input, the system enhances performance of supercritical CO₂ and Stirling engine cycles, increasing overall electrical generation efficiency while maintaining a fully containerized, modular deployment architecture.
This configuration gives every ScanPod™ — and every future pod-based facility in the campus — a consistent, repeatable foundation with long-term clean-energy support, temperature stabilization, and operational reliability. These packages may be acquired through this equipment facility and/or by individual purchasers.
ScanPort - OKCMetro™ begins with a foundation.
A real one — pipes, wells, vaults, thermal systems, pads — but also a foundation of sequencing.
If the order is wrong, loss of time, increased costs, frustration. If the order is right, the entire campus becomes a self-powered research and community engine.
We begin with Phase One, which is the period where the site is created in its most essential form. This is where the Thermal Utility Engine™ is built, where the underground architecture takes shape, and where the first seven ScanPods — the anchors of the entire campus — take their places along the early perimeter. Before anything else can happen, the site has to be ready to receive it.
Phase One — Building the Spine of ScanPort™
Although the public will eventually see the cafés, the gardens, the research facilities, and the extraordinary architecture of the perimeter containers, the real work of Phase One happens long before any of that appears.
It begins with identifying the land, working with the governmental authorities to establish the framework, running the engineering models, preparing the site, and placing the earliest long-lead equipment orders so fabrication can begin.
The Thermal Utility Engine™ infrastructure is the first major milestone.
It is a massive, coordinated system — geothermal wells; large underground fluid tanks, deep thermal capture corridors; thermal distribution lines; high-pressure vaults; energy balancing pads; sensor-laden conduits; secure trenches; and the underground geometry that allows us to move heat as intentionally as other sites move air or water. Much of the equipment that runs this system must be fabricated months in advance. That is why the first step of this entire project is the acquisition and fabrication of the Thermal Utility Engine™ equipment.
While this work proceeds with engineers, underground preparation and fabrication teams, the public-sector infrastructure progresses in parallel. The newly formed governmental authorities move forward with tax-exempt municipal bonds to fund roads, shared utilities, site access, lighting, and the other elements of the public backbone. These elements are critical, but they cannot drive the schedule — not the way the Thermal Utility Engine™ does. The TUE is the pace car for the entire development.
As the TUE infrastructure is installed and the first container connetion Pads are located and set, the seven ScanPods begin fabrication. Their delivery and placement cannot occur until Phase One TUE systems are ready to receive and interconnect with these GreenBox™ Beyond Mil-Spec™ containers. Their arrival and activation mark the moment the site begins transitioning from development into operations. They are the first real Pod facilities on the ScanPort perimeter. They give the campus its first revenue-producing capability. These seven ScanPods are expected to establish roughly 40% of the perimeter wall. They tie directly into the TUE system that has been prepared to receive them.
Phase One is expected to run through 2026 and 2027, with the objective of placing as much infrastructure “in service” as possible during 2027 so that electrical and thermal systems can begin stabilizing, ScanPods can be installed, and the site can transition from a construction zone to a functioning organism.
ScanPort OKC is a large-scale undertaking — a campus built to last generations, a fusion of advanced digital intelligence, thermal-electric innovation, community health infrastructure, and container-based modular design. The full vision requires a carefully sequenced funding model, one that matches the architecture of the project itself: layered, resilient, and designed to expand as the campus grows.
To accomplish this, ScanPort relies on three coordinated funding pillars, each matched to a different part of the development sequence:
1. Private-Sector Funding for the Thermal Utility Engine™ (TUE) Infrastructure
The first pillar activates immediately. Before the land is fully prepared, before public-sector financing is completed, the TUE — the thermal and electrical backbone of ScanPort — must begin fabrication. This is long-lead, precision-built equipment, forming the underground and container-level architecture that allows the entire site to function.
To launch this core infrastructure, we begin with privately funded equipment interests. High-income participants have a unique opportunity to allocate federal tax incentives toward the capital formation needed to build the TUE. This early capital is not a supplement — it is the spark that allows Phase One to start. Without it, nothing at the site can be installed, powered, cooled, heated, or stabilized.
2. Public-Sector Infrastructure Funding (Tax-Exempt Municipal Bonds)
As the TUE begins fabrication and installation, the governmental authorities overseeing the site advance the public-sector infrastructure: roads, utilities, access, lighting, and the foundational components required for campus-wide operations. These elements are funded through tax-exempt municipal revenue bonds, supported by ScanPort tariff revenues. They are not funded with taxpayer dollars.
This second pillar does not drive the schedule — it runs in parallel with the private-sector catalyst that begins the project. But it is essential to delivering a fully functioning campus.
3. Private Funding for ScanPods and Modular Facilities
Once the TUE infrastructure is underway and the site begins taking shape, a separate private-sector program funds the ScanPods themselves and the specialized modular facilities that form the perimeter and interior structures. These include scanning systems, community pods, research and health pods, educational environments, and the dozens of specialized units that require custom fabrication.
This pillar runs on its own track, aligned with but distinct from the TUE. It ensures that the anchor tenants — the first seven ScanPods — and the supporting architecture can be ready for installation as soon as Phase One infrastructure is prepared to receive them.
⸻
A Funding Architecture Designed for Expansion
These three pillars create a development sequence in which:
• The TUE initiates the project and sets the pace
• Public-sector work follows in stride
• Modular facilities and ScanPods fill the campus as the backbone comes online
Together, they allow ScanPort to break ground early, accelerate the build cycle, and create a site with a long and expanding operational life.
As the campus moves from development into operations, additional funding cycles and equipment pools may be formed to support expansion, but the initial architecture remains constant:
early private capital creates the infrastructure,
public capital builds the backbone, and
modular capital brings the site to life.
Phase Two — Expansion Within a Living Framework
Phase Two begins when the campus has an operational heartbeat. The TUE is active, the seven ScanPods are installed, the perimeter wall is partially built, and the early public-sector systems are flowing. From this point forward, the site grows inward at the same time.
The perimeter continues to rise with additional GreenBox™ Beyond Mil-Spec containers — ultimately more than 500 of them — each of which carries its own micro-generation, thermal capture, storage, and distribution systems that plug directly into the architecture Phase One creates. They strengthen the TUE; they do not sit outside it. Every new container makes the whole campus stronger and its energy generation larger.
Inside the perimeter, new Pods take shape. These include research facilities, educational environments, child- and family-centered community spaces, scanning modules, therapy and recovery suites, as well as the village-life elements that make the entire development human: cafés, small restaurants, offices, storage, shops, lodging, quiet spaces, energy gardens, and places to meet, talk, rest, and work. This area is expected to include 100s of additional Pods made from more than 1000 GreenBox™ ISO containers.
If Phase One is about creating capability, Phase Two is about creating place.
It is the transition from infrastructure to community.
And because the underpinning of ScanPort is modular, adaptive, and energy-positive, Phase Two does not have a hard stop. It continues — as the site fills, as systems expand underground, as new research efforts join, and as future Pods are added. Every new Pod adds electrical generation and thermal modulation capacity. Every new Pod strengthens the thermal utility engine that supports the entire campus.
This is how ScanPort grows: by building on top of a foundation designed from the beginning to expand.
ScanPort™ is being launched by a group of Oklahoma professionals with national and international experience developing world-class technology. Our team has spent decades advancing energy systems, finance, insurance and risk management, advanced data systems, logistics, and digital infrastructure around the globe — and is now applying that expertise to strengthen healthcare where it matters most: at home.
ScanPort™ brings this technology together to focus on pediatric diseases and the long-term effects of COVID-19. It combines advanced digital scanning, a new form of artificial intelligence we call Digital Intelligence, and straightforward Oklahoma practicality to see the body in new ways and to help medical professionals catch problems earlier.
ScanPortOKC is also structured to welcome qualified individuals and family offices who share this mission. Its technology systems are engineered to qualify for substantial federal clean-energy and digital-infrastructure incentives.
This blend of innovation, mission, and thoughtful financial design is what makes ScanPort™ both visionary and practical — a project built in Oklahoma, for Oklahoma, with benefits that extend far beyond.
We invite you to become a part of this new Pediatric Diseases | Long COVID | Recovery initiative as it moves from concept to healing.
A New Dawn for Community Health
As the sun rises over each ScanPort™, the system quietly powers itself — solar arrays capturing light, cooling systems balancing entropy, and data syncing securely to local medical teams.
It’s not just a facility — it’s a living network, designed to restore health, dignity, and hope right where people live.
