As I just was losing all hope for California to prove to our nation that 'renewable energy' is a financially as much as environmentally sustainable option.
Things do not look good financially or environmentally for any of California's goals but 'waste to energy and biogas programs' starting in San Jose may prove highly viable.
RedGeenandBlue - Achieving a goal of 100 percent energy independence is a little closer for San Jose thanks to a momentous move by the City Council today. The City Council authorized the City Manager to negotiate and execute a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to develop potential lease terms and guidelines for developing an organics-to energy bio-gas facility.
The bio-gas facility would also be bound on either side by two solid waste recovery and recycling facilities.
San Jose will issue a lease to Zero Waste Energy Development Company, Inc., a partnership between GreenWaste Recovery and their sister company, Zanker Road Resource Management.
This project would also see the cooperation of GreenWaste and Harvest Power, Inc., a company that provides leading technology and project development capabilities for harnessing the renewable energy in organic waste.
