Diversified Energy and Evergreen Pulp submit proposal to State of California for Wood Biomass generation demonstration (Funding)
Diversified Energy Corporation and Evergreen Pulp, Inc have formed a partnership and submitted a proposal to pursue a renewable project being funded by the state of California. Diversified Energy will be the prime contractor providing program management and gasification technology through a wood biomass demonstration-scale reactor at Evergreen Pulps' kraft pulp mill in Eureka, CA.
The Public Interest Energy Research Natural Gas (PIER-NG) Program, a part of the California Energy Commission, is seeking research, development and demonstration of technologies capable of replacing natural gas usage with renewable resources. The focus of the state solicitation is on biomass-to-gas and/or hybrid projects specifically addressing industrial and commercial process heating or combined heat and power needs. Award decisions are expected in May '07. (Source: PR Newswire, Mar. 29, 07)
