As a followup, I found this article in Technology Review.

I thought as an exercise it might be fun to look at how much man made gasoline
could be generated from one of these plants.
With current technology, it takes about 50 Kwh to make a gallon of gasoline.
The article says the plant would cost $1.7 Billion, and would generate 500 Mw.
500 Mw is 500 Mwh per hour, so 500 X 10^6/50 X10^3= 10,000 gallons per hour.
This rate would produce 86,400,000 gallons of gasoline per year.
If the plant had a 20 year life expectancy, the cost of the finished gasoline would be,
$1.7 X 10^9/ 1.728 X10 ^9 gallons= $.98 per gallon.
If the electricity were sold at $40 per Mwh, it would generate $3.5 Billion.
So selling the wholesale Carbon neutral gasoline for $2 per gallon would be
comparable to just making electricity.
The big difference is the gasoline could be stored for up to several years, until needed,
and is compatible with existing infrastructure.
