As scientifically proven, Methane is 20 times more harmful than carbon dioxide! Our plants will substantially reduce your community's output of greenhouse gases while procuring a reliable electrical supply. In fact, with the possibility of multiple revenue streams, the social and economic benefits are substantial.
 An Island Green Energy EFW project is a viable solution to affordable 'green' energy, a permanent solution to the disposal of waste and will drastically reduce reliance on landfill sites, problems that will plague generation to come if left unresolved. |
