GTI Quantifies Opportunity to Produce Low-Carbon Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) from Wood Wastes
Today, GTI announces the release of a site-specific engineering design titled Low-Carbon Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) from Wood Wastes. GTI led a team of engineers and scientists to produce a “blueprint” for converting an existing biomass facility into an RNG production site, using the wood waste feedstock and some of the existing infrastructure. A biomass power plant in Stockton, California, was the host site for the engineering design effort. In addition to providing data about the process tech...

NEW REPORT Shows Urgent Need for Nevada Legislature to Further Advance Clean Energy
NV Energy’s recently-released December 2018 Renewable Generations report shows that, thanks to the work of the 2017 Legislature, there were nearly 15,000 applications for rooftop solar projects last year, with almost half of them already completed. This represents a 450 percent growth in solar applications over 2017 and would generate enough electricity to power 20,000 Nevada homes. These projects create jobs and reduce consumers’ utility bills, and were made possible thanks to one of the nine b...

Sun Investment Group Calls for Closer Ties Between Businesses, Universities and European Union Institutions to Create Clean and Innovative Renewable Energy Market
The European Union is currently faced with the dilemma of having several of its member states already reach their 2020 renewable energy targets, but as a whole also being 55% dependent on imported energy from external supplies. By 2050, the EU wishes to run 100% on renewable power from itself, and energy experts believe that this goal can be achieved by the creation of a European “Energy Union.” This step would create a single market despite a number of other EU members predicted to not meet...
