2003 - PES receives Energy Harvest Grant from PA Dept. of Environmental
Protection to deploy Stirling Engine at Municipal Wastewater Facilities
PES received a Pennsylvania Energy Harvest Grant to partially fund
project development and implementation activities for the installation
of 1.1 megawatts of biomass power generation capacity at wastewater
treatment plants (WWTPs) throughout the state of Pennsylvania. This
gas is often flared or vented off into the atmosphere when it could
be used as a renewable source of energy. This grant will help promote
the market penetration of technologies capable of burning low-grade
biogas, thus laying the groundwork for future development of renewable
energy projects using biogas that would otherwise be wasted.
