Elaborating on the status of the Future Energy Park , Jesse continues : “ The Future Energy Park reflects the flagship of what can be done in waste-to-energy projects if we combine technology with the desire to utilize waste streams . We take waste and industrial waste wheat to produce bioethanol using European ethanol technology , which is then processed into RNG .
“ Each year , approximately 11-to-13 percent of wheat produced in Canada does not meet Grade A standards , meaning it is not suitable for human consumption , so we ’ re not only producing renewable energy at the Future Energy Park but also repurposing product that would otherwise go to waste . We ’ re creating a circular economy concept and we ’ re also capturing and sequestering the carbon that is emitted during the process of creating biofuels .
“ In a similar way to how we repurpose waste products to produce biofuel at the Future Energy Park , we ’ re converting organic waste into RNG at GreenGas Colorado , by using anerobic digestion and gasification processes ,” he adds . “ We ’ ve secured longterm feedstock supply from two national dairy producers with onsite gas offtake and connection , from which we take around 250,000 gallons of manure on each site every day .”
