Former President Bill Clinton Highlights Methane Potential in ARPA-E Speech

 

 

FlexEnergy was proud to attend the third annual ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit this week in Washington, DC. During the event, former President Bill Clinton provided a keynote that highlighted several policy areas, including the importance of methane-to-energy projects, such as those offered by FlexEnergy. As explained in GreenTech Media’s summary of the speech:

[Clinton] noted that there was no reason the U.S. shouldn’t have a federal finance model for capturing GHG from landfills and agricultural waste. A successful model could also be an example for the rest of the world. Unlike transmission, Clinton did not offer an example of what that might look like, especially with low natural gas prices. One firm that was at ARPA-E, FlexEnergy, can work with low-quality methane making the payback potentially achievable for municipalities with landfill gas that is currently being flared. The technology, however, is still young and is in pilots.

OC METRO: Methane-fueled power station approved in Orange

 

 

 

The FlexEnergy-run project will turn gas from the Santiago Canyon landfill into clean energy to power homes.

Published: January 11, 2012

The Orange County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved an agreement to turn the decommissioned Santiago Canyon landfill in Orange into a source of renewable energy that will provide methane-based power to local homes. The agreement allows Irvine-based Flex OC Renewables, a subsidiary of FlexEnergy Inc., to move forward with its plans to build a power station fueled by methane produced by decomposing trash in the landfill.

Since the landfill closed in 1988, the garbage has burned off the methane released by its decomposition, releasing the pollutant into the atmosphere. The Santiago Canyon project will progress Orange County’s adaptation to new air quality standards for waste gas emissions, which will take effect in 2013.
