EPA Moves Closer To Regulating Carbon Emissions 
and All Other Leading Greenhouse Gas Emissions

April 18, 2009

WASHINGTON — In a major reversal of years of government policy regarding Greenhouse Gas Emissions, the Environmental Protection Agency today proposed regulating Greenhouse Gas Emissions to combat and reverse global warming and climate change.

"In both magnitude and probability, climate change is an enormous problem" said E.P.A's Administrator Lisa Jackson in their 130 page report on Greenhouse Gas Emissions. "This finding confirms that greenhouse gas pollution is a serious problem now and for future generations. Fortunately, it follows [US President Barack H. Obama's] call for a low-carbon economy and strong leadership in Congress on clean energy and climate legislation. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and greenhouse gas pollution problems have a solution, one that will create millions of green jobs and end our country's dependence on foreign oil," according to Jackson. 

Jackson said this report found that projected levels of Greenhouse Gas Emissions "endanger the public health and welfare of current and future generations."  The finding came two years after the Supreme Court ruled the EPA had the authority to regulate Greenhouse Gas Emissions under the Clean Air Act.

"Renewable Energy Technologies such as; Anaerobic Digesters, Biomethane, Concentrating Solar Power, Geothermal Power Plants are "carbon neutral energy" technologies, and generate no new Greenhouse Gas Emissions.  Power generated from Biomass Gasification power plants, are "carbon negative energy" solutions which actually remove carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere, according to the Founder and Chairman of the Institute for Climate Solutions, and the Renewable Energy Institute's Mont Goodell.

We Package, Sell and Install Highly-efficient 
Cogeneration
and Trigeneration energy systems


Trigeneration Technologies, LLC. is a privately held company that was founded by two of the board members of the Renewable Energy Institute.  We assist in the optimization of bulk power systems by engineering, developing, installing, owning and operating highly efficient cogeneration and trigeneration energy systems. 

Our specialty is both both cogeneration and trigeneration energy systems. There is probably not a better, more cost-effective "demand side management" method for reducing the energy expenses for commercial businesses.

We  manufacture/package, sell and install cogeneration and trigeneration energy systems that approach 100% net system efficiency. This means our energy systems utilize nearly 100% of the fuel in the form of power (electricity) and hot water and/or steam with our cogeneration energy systems and cooling, heating and power (electricity) with our trigeneration energy systems - that our customers use "onsite" in their buildings, restaurants, health clubs, hotels, casinos, office buildings, hospitals and many other types of commercial buildings, facilities and plants.  

For qualified clients, we will build-design-finance-own-operate and maintain our cogeneration or trigeneration energy systems.


What is "Trigeneration"?

Trigeneration is the simultaneous production of three forms of energy - typically, Cooling, Heating and Power - from only one fuel input. Put another way, our trigeneration power plants produce three different types of energy for the price of one.  

Our company's trigeneration energy systems reach overall system efficiencies of 86% to 93%.  Typical "central" power plants, that do not need the heat generated from the combustion and power generation process, are only about 33% efficient.  

 



Trigeneration Diagram & Description
Trigeneration Power Plants' Have the Highest System Efficiencies and are 
About 300 % More Efficient than Typical Central Power Plants

Trigeneration plants are installed at locations that can benefit from all three forms of energy.  These types of installations that install trigeneration energy systems are called "onsite power generation" also referred to as "decentralized energy."   

One of our company's principal's first experience with the design and development of a trigeneration power plant was the trigeneration power plant installation at Rice University in 1987 where our trigeneration development team started out by conducting a "cogeneration" feasibility study.  We installed a 4.0 MW Ruston gas turbine for the power plant.  Rice University selected an EPC company that installed the trigeneration power plant, along with waste heat recovery boilers and absorption chillers. A "waste heat recovery boiler" captures the heat from the exhaust of the gas turbine.  From there, the recovered energy was converted to chilled water - originally from (3) Hitachi Absorption Chillers - 2 were rated at 1,000 tons each, and the third Hitachi Absorption Chiller was rated at 1,500 tons. The Hitachi absorption chillers were replaced shortly after their installation by the EPC company.  The first trigeneration plant at Rice University was so successful, they added a second 5.0 MW trigeneration plant so today, Rice University is now generating about 9.0 MW of electricity, and also producing the cooling and heating the university needs from the trigeneration plant and circulating the trigeneration energy around its campus.

Trigeneration's "Super-Efficiency" compared 
with other competing technologies
As you can see, there is No Competition for Trigeneration!


Our trigeneration power plants are the ideal onsite power and energy solution for customers that include:  Data Centers, Hospitals, Universities, Airports, Central Plants, Colleges & Universities, Dairies, Server Farms, District Heating & Cooling Plants, Food Processing Plants, Golf/Country Clubs, Government Buildings, Grocery Stores, Hotels, Manufacturing Plants, Nursing Homes, Office Buildings / Campuses, Radio Stations, Refrigerated Warehouses, Resorts, Restaurants, Schools, Server Farms, Shopping Centers, Supermarkets, Television Stations, Theatres and Military Bases.

We partner and collaborate with other forward thinking companies and communities that are interested in changing the outdated power and energy model of the past - inefficient and highly-polluting central power plants that average 33% efficiency - to a new paradigm and model for the future -  community-based cogeneration and trigeneration energy systems at more than 90% efficiency - and therefore provides power and energy at lower prices while significantly reducing and even eliminating typical power plant emissions and greenhouse gas emissions.  

Call (832) 758 - 0027 for more information about community-based cogeneration and trigeneration energy systems or about making your community, hospital, university or other commercial facility a model for the future.

We presently contract the packaging of our new trigeneration energy systems by a 3rd party/supplier but plan to build a new trigeneration manufacturing plant - near Houston, Texas where we will be able to significantly increase our trigeneration power plant production.

At about 86% to 93% net system efficiency, our trigeneration power plants are about 300% more efficient at providing energy than your current electric utility. That's because the typical electric utility's power plants are only about 33% efficient - they waste 2/3 of the fuel in generating electricity in the enormous amount of waste heat energy that they exhaust through their smokestacks.

Trigeneration is defined as the simultaneous production of three energies: cooling, heating and power.  Our trigeneration energy systems use the same amount of fuel in producing three energies that would normally only produce just one type of energy. This means our customers that have our trigeneration power plants have significantly lower energy expenses, and a lower carbon footprint.

Our smallest trigeneration power plant "basic" power plant is a 200 kW trigeneration system. 

All of our trigeneration power plants can produce 42 degree F. chilled water (with a 20 degree chilled water option) as well as steam and hot water while generating at least 200 kW of power. We can build trigeneration power plants up to 10 MW and with system efficiencies approaching 100%.

Read more about our Trigeneration Power Plants on our Specifications page.

Not sure what size trigeneration power plant to order or whether trigeneration is right for your business?

We can help!

Not sure what size trigeneration power plant to order or whether trigeneration is right for your business?

We can help as we offer three types of Trigeneration Feasibility Reviews & Studies!

Our Trigeneration Feasibility will help you make a decision whether one of our trigeneration power plants are right for your facility.


Trigeneration Feasibility Study and Analysis

Provides a solid basis for moving a potential renewable energy project forward.  The cost for this depends on the type, location, amount of time we require, and any additional requirements that may be included by the client. 

Generally, a trigeneration feasibility study a good option for clients considering trigeneration that need a trigeneration energy system that is over 1.0 MW and up to about 3.0 MW.

The time required to complete the study is about 90 to 120 days, on average. 

The final study we deliver is usually the basis for the customer to obtain a loan, power purchase agreement, energy services agreement or placing an order with us.

To start a Trigeneration Preliminary Study and Analysis, we require a 50% cash payment of the study cost plus a refundable deposit for our reimbursable expenses.


Trigeneration Detailed Concept, Engineering and Design Analysis

The detailed engineering design is a good option for clients that would need a trigeneration energy system with an estimated trigeneration energy system over 3.0 MW and above. In a detailed engineering design, the trigeneration energy system is conceived, designed and engineered as a custom fit and optimized energy solution for your specific facility. 

Final result is usually ready for a company to start construction. A detailed engineering design can take from 4 months to 6 months to complete. The fee will generally run as a percentage of the total installed cost of the trigeneration energy system, and generally costs anywhere from 5% to 15% of the overall cost of the project.

To start a detailed trigeneration engineering design, we require a 50% cash payment of the total fee plus a refundable deposit for our reimbursable expenses.

Our trigeneration feasibility studies and engineering design are led by our licensed engineers.  Our goal is to help you determine whether your renewable energy is viable, identify the merits of your proposed renewable energy project, identify weak points, provide our recommended course of action, as well as our recommendations for products and equipment that need further review or consideration.  Our Feasibility Studies are an excellent "foundation" for building your next renewable energy project.

If you order your new trigeneration power plant from us within 30 days of the date of delivery of our Trigeneration Feasibility Review or Study, we will reduce the cost of your new trigeneration power plant by half the cost of the study and apply the fee to the purchase.

Trigeneration is a technology whose time as come! Particularly for commercial clients who want to decrease their energy expenses and carbon footprint, while increasing energy efficiency and profits. This is possible as our trigeneration power plants surpass 90% net system efficiency. 

This is possible through our trigeneration power plants that surpass 90% system efficiency for our clients that need cooling, heating and power - which covers about 99% of all commercial buildings and companies.

While most new trigeneration power plants are capable of being fueled with clean natural gas, we are dedicated to ending the use of fossil fuels by providing renewable energy and renewable fuels such as B100 Biodiesel or Biomethane.  Simultaneously, we are focused on reducing and eliminating greenhouse gas emissions and carbon dioxide emissions.

In association with the Renewable Energy Institute, affiliate companies and investors, we provide "turnkey" trigeneration power plant development services that range from initial Engineering Feasibility & Economic Analysis Studies through project installation, start-up and commissioning, Operations & Maintenance, and Long Term Service Agreements for the lifetime of our systems.

Trigeneration Technologies' trigeneration energy systems' net system's efficiencies surpass any potential competitor.  We guarantee our standard trigeneration power plants will exceed 90% net system efficiency. 

Our trigeneration plants can use renewable fuels such as Biomethane, B100 Biodiesel or Dimethyl Ether, instead of fossil fuels to run them. We also offer an optional selective catalytic reduction technology that takes NOx down to "non-detect" without the use of ammonia or urea on our new trigeneration plants.

Our range of services (some provided by affiliate companies or manufacturing suppliers) include:

  • Design/engineering, Engineering Feasibility and Economic Analysis Studies

  • Legal

  • Energy Service Agreements

  • Power Purchase Agreements

  • Build

  • Finance

  • Own

  • Operate

  • Maintain

  • Long Term Service Agreements

Our renewable energy projects generate Renewable Energy Credit or Certified Emission Reduction credits, which provide an additional income stream from our projects.

Biomass Gasification
www.BiomassGasification.com
Carbon Free Energy and Pollution Free Power Solutions
that Turn "Waste to Energy"

Biomass Gasification Technologies, a Renewable Energy Ventures company, is privately held and founded by two of the members of the Renewable Energy Institute.  Biomass Gasification Technologies develops, owns and operates biomass gasification plants and also provides engineering services related to biomass feedstock and biomass gasification. We provide research and development funding through the Renewable Energy Institute in advancing biomass gasification technologies, one of the few "carbon negative energy" technologies that actually removes carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere.

Our superior gasification technologies are based on the "fluidized bed gasification" process and are the result of 20 years of research and development during which time our biomass gasification technology has been awarded numerous grants from multiple government agencies including the EPA and DOE along with two patents and 5 patents that are pending.

Biomass Gasification Technologies, a Renewable Energy Ventures Company, was formed to develop and advance biomass gasification technologies. Presently, we offer two biomass gasification technologies wherein we own the patents and/or the international marketing rights for these superior biomass gasification technologies.

Our biomass gasification technologies were developed over the past twenty years, and in recent association, affiliation and collaboration with the Renewable Energy Institute, the Department of Energy, the Environmental Protection Agency, and and Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas.

We have two different biomass gasification technologies and they are based on the quantity of biomass and power generated. One biomass gasification technology is available from as little as 250 kW to just over 1.0 MW.  The other biomass gasification technology is available from 1.0 MW to over 100 MW. We have been operating our first full-scale, commercial biomass gasification pilot plant which integrates all of our patents, utilizing multiple biomass feedstock, for the past two years. This first biomass gasification generates just over 1.0 MW of clean power.  All of our research has now been validated and we are generating "carbon negative energy" from our Synthesis Gas

We are now making our superior gasification technologies available through sale, joint venture development, or through a licensing agreement. We are now offering licenses to manufacture, install, sell and co-develop our biomass gasification plants. Until we select the licensees, we are developing joint venture partnerships in Africa, Canada, Central and South America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. In the U.S., we are offering two licenses to qualified licensees that can assist in the manufacturing of our biomass gasification plants. One license is available for west of the Mississippi, and another license is available for east of the Mississippi.    

At the present time, we are actively seeking new biomass gasification projects in the U.S., Canada, Central America and the Caribbean.

We are also very interested in working with cities and municipalities and the agricultural communities that have an abundance of biomass feedstock. Some of these feedstocks include agricultural waste, crop residues, sewage sludge, urban wood waste.  

With the pending Cap and Trade regulations and ever-increasing need for our customers to reduce their Greenhouse Gas Emissions, we are finding that more and more customers are interested in replacing their fossil fuels (natural gas, coal, diesel, etc.) or electricity with our "clean power generation" technology that generates Synthesis GasSynthesis Gas is produced with our clients biomass through our biomass gasification plant - a real win-win-win solution for our clients, the environment, and their bottom-line!

In late 2009, we will have our second commercial biomass gasification online and generating 10 MW of "carbon free energy" near Houston, Texas.  The primary biomass feedstock for this plant will be urban wood waste (wood chips and saw dust), rice husks, sewage sludge and construction and demolition materials from Hurricane Ike last year. 

Our biomass gasification plants are fueled with biomass waste streams that can include most any biomass or organic material, or "waste." 

Is your city or landfill "Wasting Waste"?
 
Cities and landfill owners are "wasting waste" and losing out on a huge environmental and economic opportunity!

Biomass materials and organic waste materials are now being wasted by every city and landfill, when these valuable "wastes" are disposed of in overcrowded landfills. Because there are so many landfills that have limited space - and for some cities that need this valuable real estate, we are very interested in assisting cities and landfill owners with "Landfill Reclamation." 

The biomass gasification plants we manufacture are the ideal solution for cities and businesses that want to generate "waste to energy" or "waste to fuel" with NO carbon emissions, carbon dioxide emissions or greenhouse gas emissions!

Did you know that most landfills contain - on average - 65% organic materials that could be used as fuel in our biomass gasification plants? 

These ideal biomass feedstock fuels going to landfills not only waste the limited space of landfills, but are "wasting" the waste that we could use as fuel, and generate "green energy and power" and "carbon negative energy" for these cities. 

In addition to about 65% of the waste streams being wasted by landfilling them, our biomass gasification plants can also convert most any carbon-based (biomass or organic) waste stream, including:  urban wood waste, lawn and grass clippings, sewage sludge, railroad ties, saw dust, forestry waste, crop residues, agricultural waste, corn stover, straws and grasses, construction and demolition materials, Refuse Derived Fuels, Municipal Solid Wastes, food waste, shipping pallets, animal manure, tires and many more!

Reduce your city's solid waste disposal and landfill expenses by at least 30% and generate "pollution free power" and "carbon free energy" with our turnkey waste to energy solution, featuring our superior biomass gasification plant! 

We can provide a turnkey waste to energy solution for qualified cities - that want to stop "wasting waste."

In association with the Renewable Energy Institute and our "superior gasification" technology, we have have developed a win-win solution and business model that helps cities (and their citizens and taxpayers) and associated landfills reduce or completely eliminate; Carbon Emissions, Carbon Dioxide Emissions and Greenhouse Gas Emissions that are associated with 65% of the wastes presently being disposed of in landfills. Better still, we can arrange to sell the green power we generate from these biomass wastes and our biomass gasification plant back to your city at a preferred price.  

For more information and to learn if your city (or landfill) qualifies for our turnkey waste to energy solution, call (832) 758 - 0027  or  send an email to:  info@BiomassGasification.com

We also provide; biomass feasibility, biomass feedstock and biomass engineering studies. Call (832) 758 - 0027  or  send an email to:  info@BiomassGasification.com  for more information.

Our work is performed on a strict adherence to "vendor-neutrality."   We seek to maximize the return on investment from both the economic and environmental aspects while simultaneously minimizing the operational expenses for our clients. 

What is Concentrated Solar Power?

Concentrated solar power plants produce electric power by converting the sun's energy into high-temperature heat using various mirror configurations. The heat is then channeled through a conventional generator. The plants consist of two parts: one that collects solar energy and converts it to heat, and another that converts heat energy to electricity.

Concentrated solar power systems can be sized for village power (10 kilowatts) or grid-connected applications (up to 100 megawatts). Some systems use thermal storage during cloudy periods or at night. Others can be combined with natural gas and the resulting hybrid power plants provide high-value, dispatchable power. These attributes, along with world record solar-to-electric conversion efficiencies, make concentrating solar power an attractive renewable energy option in the Southwest and other sunbelt regions worldwide.

Glossary of Terms

What is an Assigned Amount (AA)?

The quantity of greenhouse gases that an Annex I country can release in accordance with the Kyoto Protocol, during the first commitment period of that protocol (2008-12).


What is an Assigned Amount Unit (AAU)?

An Assigned Amount Unit (AAU) is a tradable unit of 1 tCO2e.


What are Certified Emission Reductions (CERs)?

According to the Kyoto Protocol, a Kyoto Protocol unit equal to 1 metric tonne of CO 2 equivalent. A CER is issued for emission reductions from CDM project activities. Two special types of CERs called temporary certified emission reduction (tCERs) and long-term certified emission reductions (lCERs) are issued for emission removals from forestation and reforestation CDM projects.

What is the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)?

The Clean Development Mechanism is provided by Article 12 of the Kyoto Protocol, designed to assist developing countries in achieving sustainable development by permitting industrialized countries to finance projects for reducing greenhouse gas emission in developing countries and receive credit for doing so.


What is an Emission Reduction Purchase Agreement (ERPA)?

An Emission Reduction Purchase Agreement is a binding purchase agreement signed between buyer (of CERs or ERUs) and seller.


What are Emission Reduction Units (ERUs)?

A unit of emission reductions achieved through a Joint Implementation project. This unit is equal to one metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent.

What are Emissions Reductions (ERs)?

Emissions reductions generated by a project that have not undergone a validation/verification process, but are contracted for purchase.


What is Emissions Trading?

Emissions Trading allows for the transfer of AAUs across international borders or emission allowances between companies covered by a Cap and Trade program. However, it is a general term often used for the three Kyoto mechanisms: JI, CDM and emissions trading.


What is the Emissions Trading Scheme?

The ETS is the largest multi-national, greenhouse gas emissions trading scheme in the world and is a main pillar of EU climate policy.


What is an ERU?


Emission Reduction Unit.


What is the EU ETS?

European Union Emissions Trading Scheme.


What is an EUA?


European Union Allowance.


What is an European Union Allowances (EUA)?

Materialization of the EU ETS quotas, the tradable unit under the EU ETS. One EUA represents the right to emit 1 ton of CO2.


What is the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS)

Trading Scheme within the European Union. The first compliance phase is from 2005 to 2007, while the second compliance phase continues from 2008 to 2012.

 

What is a Renewable Energy Certificate?

Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) - each REC represents the equivalent of one megawatt hour of electricity generation from an accredited renewable energy source. 


What is a Verified Emission Reduction (VER)?

A Verified Emission Reduction is a unit of greenhouse gas emission reduction that has been verified by an independent auditor, but has not yet undergone the procedures and may not yet have met the requirements for verification, certification and issuance of CERs (in the case of the CDM) or ERUs (in the case of JI) under the Kyoto Protocol. 

Buyers of VERs assume all carbon-specific policy and regulatory risks (i.e. the risk that the VERs are not ultimately registered as CERs or ERUs). Buyers therefore tend to pay a discounted price for VERs, which takes the inherent regulatory risks into account. VERs are carbon credits which are not certified under the Kyoto Protocol but which can be used to compensate carbon emissions. 1 VER corresponds to one metric tone of CO2 equivalent.


What is the Voluntary Market?

The Voluntary market is precisely that, a "voluntary" market for emissions reductions for buyers and sellers of Verified Emission Reductions (VERs), which seek to manage their emission exposure for non-regulatory purposes.

 

According to the United Nations:

"It is estimated that Greenhouse Gas Emissions 
trading markets could be worth $2 Trillion by 2012."

Carbon Dioxide Emissions
Since the year 1750

##
World CO2 since 1750 (cubic feet)

World Carbon Dioxide Emissions since 1750 (cubic feet)

The carbon clock tracks total carbon dioxide emissions in metric tons since 1750.

Since 1750, humans have emitted over 5 trillion pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Roughly half of this has ended up in the oceans where it is beginning to damage the coral reefs. The other half is still in the atmosphere and causing global warming. Each pound of CO2 takes up as much space as a 500 pound person.

The formula (which should be good for a year or two) is:
C(t) = 2.58 ×1012 + 1240×t, where t is seconds since the start of 2007.

C is tonnes (metric tons) of carbon dioxide emissions.
2205 x C gives pounds of carbon dioxide emissions.

That comes to over 43 billion tons/year or over 86 trillion pounds/year.

Carbon dioxide (2) = 1 carbon atom with 2 oxygen atoms.
Carbon has relative weight 12 and Oxygen 16.
So it takes only 12 pounds of carbon to make 12+16+16 = 44 pounds of CO2.

California and Sweden Sign Agreement to Jointly Develop Biomethane and Other Renewable Fuels

Thursday, 29 June 2006
Sacramento, California USA and Sweden 

In a ceremony held at the Ministry of the Environment in Stockholm, representatives of the Kingdom of Sweden and the State of California signed an agreement pledging the two governments and their related industries to work together to develop bioenergy, with a particular emphasis on Biomethane

“Through a strong working relationship between its industry and government, Sweden is showing how bioenergy can be developed in a cost-effective manner that benefits its economy and environment. We are extremely pleased to have signed this Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that will provide a basis for intensified collaboration between Swedish and California officials to develop a thriving bioenergy industry in California,” said Joe Desmond, Undersecretary for the California Resources Agency.

In particular, Sweden has been a global leader in terms of converting biowaste, largely agricultural material and residues, into usable Biomethane. This gas is then used to either generate electricity, residential heating, or as a transportation fuel.

More than 8,000 vehicles in Sweden are powered by a combination of natural gas and Biomethane. The vehicles include transit buses, refuse trucks, and more than 10 different models of passenger cars. There are more than 25 Biomethane production facilities in Sweden and 65 filling stations. The Swedish Biomethane industry has been growing at an annual rate of about 20 percent over the last five years.

According to the Swedish Gas Association, more than 50 percent of the methane used to power Sweden’s natural gas vehicles now comes from biological sources, up from 45% last year. Natural gas vehicle sales in Sweden are increasing at the rate of 25% per annum. 

Sweden was motivated to develop its Biomethane industry because it has no natural gas reserves, to more efficiently manage its waste, and to meet its obligations under the Kyoto Accord. Since Biomethane is developed from methane sources that would normally release into the atmosphere, it’s considered one of the most climate friendly fuels. Methane (and Biomethane) is 21 times more reactive as a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide (CO2). Sweden is currently meetings its objectives and schedule as outlined in the Kyoto accord.

Biomethane is developed by heating up and breaking down biomaterials in an (Anaerobic Digesters) digester. Among other raw materials, Swedish operators feed their Anaerobic Digesters with slaughterhouse waste, swine manure, and even grassy crops. After the materials breakdown over a 20 day period, technology is then used to remove the impurities and produce Biomethane. Once cleaned-up, Biomethane is 98 percent methane and easily meets the Swedish and California pipeline standards.

With Over 27 Years Experience in Anaerobic Digester Design, Engineering and Operations, We are now Building the World's best Anaerobic Digesters

Anaerobic Digesters recover valuable and toxic Biomethane from organic materials and prevents the Biomethane - which has a Global Warming Potential that is 21 times more harmful to our climate than Carbon Dioxide Emissions - from entering the atmosphere.  

Biomethane, which we also refer to as "Renewable Natural Gas" is used as a renewable fuel for our cogeneration and trigeneration power plants. Alternatively, we may sell the Biomethane to a customer and transport it to them from our Anaerobic Digesters via natural gas pipelines.

We believe Anaerobic Digesters and Biomethane represent exciting opportunities for generating renewable natural gas and profits - for multiple reasons:

1.  Anaerobic Digesters take an existing liability and waste (Biomethane) and convert it into an asset and " profit generator."

2.  Anaerobic Digesters mitigate and reverse climate change and global warming by preventing Biomethane to escape into the atmosphere, which is one of the major causes of climate change and global warming.  

Of all Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Biomethane is 21 times more harmful to the environment than Carbon Dioxide Emissions.

3.  Anaerobic Digesters are vital for renewable energy production and helping our country's drive for energy independence. 

4.  EVERY wastewater treatment plant as well as ALL Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFO's) - IN EVERY COUNTRY - will soon be installing Anaerobic Digesters to prevent Biomethane from entering the atmosphere and help reverse climate change as well as for use as a renewable fuel.

5.  The country of Sweden is the global leader in Biomethane production.  Sweden has identified the Biomethane opportunities and is converting biowaste derived from agricultural material and residues into usable Biomethane. The Biomethane is used to generate clean, renewable electricity, residential heating, and also as a transportation fuel. Biomass sources make up 45% of Sweden’s Biomethane.  Sweden's Biomethane industry has been growing at an annual rate of around 20% over the last five years.  Biomethane powers more than 8,000 transit buses, garbage trucks, and 10 different models of passenger cars in Sweden. Sweden now has more than 25 Biomethane production facilities and 65 filling stations. The country believes that since Biomethane is developed from natural, organic sources that would have been released into the atmosphere, that Biomethane is considered one of the most climate-friendly fuels. Biomethane is 98% methane and easily meets the Swedish and California pipeline standards.
