Thank you for your detailed response.

Would you happen to know how much electricity is required to produce amino acids?

In the lab, the Miller–Urey experiment (reproducible) required very little, a small spark triggered the chemical reaction. I’ll see if I can find the specifics, but I know it was low power, the description was to create the effects of lightening on a very small scale (scaling down to lab size).

Still digging for the power, however, posting some of the original papers while I look so I don’t lose the link.
