Can hot air be the free fuel of the future?

An Australian company says it can produce enough electricity for 100,000 homes by using the movement of hot air.
Roger Davey and his company EnviroMission are trying to take advantage of hot air to power cities. He wants to build a huge tower 2,600 feet tall in Arizona. This tower will create mechanical energy by spinning 32 turbines. It can create up to 200 megawatts of power which will be able to power 100,000 homes.
