You’ve probably heard of solar and wind energy, but have you heard of bioenergy? Bioenergy is a clean and renewable source of energy that can be derived from organic matter like trees, plants, and food waste. In other words, it’s a way to turn your trash into treasure! Not only is bioenergy good for the…
Category: Biogas Generator
Biogas generators are an environmentally friendly way to produce energy. The process of using gas from decomposing organic material is both cost-effective and sustainable, as it does not negatively impact the environment like other forms of renewable energies such as wind power or solar panels do.
Biogas generators can be used for a variety of purposes including stoves that use wood chips instead of natural gas, electricity production stations in remote areas where there is no access to conventional sources of fuel, wastewater treatment plants that have large amounts amount sewage containing methane emissions – biogas generation facilities capture these toxic gases before they contribute to air pollution by burning them off into the atmosphere
Can We Reach 100% Renewables by 2050?
The Paris Climate Agreement was reached in 2015 with the goal to substantially reduce global greenhouse gas emissions to limit the global temperature increase in this century to 2 degrees Celsius while pursuing efforts to limit the increase even further to 1.5 degrees. This ambitious target requires a fundamental change in the way we produce…
Is Biofuel the Solution to Oil Shortages and Climate Change?
When it comes to the world’s energy needs, there are a lot of different opinions out there. Some people think that we need to move away from fossil fuels and towards renewable energy sources like biofuels. Others believe that biofuels are not the answer, and that we should focus on developing other forms of renewable…
If food waste were a country…
‘If food waste were a country, it would be the third-largest emitter of greenhouse gases after China and the USA. This is a huge problem, as food waste is a major contributor to climate change. The good news is that there are many ways to reduce food waste, and one of them is by using biogas. Biogas is created when organic matter breaks down in the absence…

Headquartered in Portland, Oregon- they are a subsidiary of Iberdrola, S.A- which is one of the largest utility companies in the…
Can machine learning be used to solve bioenergy issues?
Machine learning is one concept that can be used to inform the sustainability of the development of the bioenenergy systems. The machine learning algorithms are used to learn the patterns in data and then make predictions or decisions accordingly. The sustainability of the bioenergy systems can be improved through the use of machine learning…
What are Biofuels? Are they sustainable?
Biofuels are bio-based fuels that can be used to power vehicles. Biofuel is a broad term that encompasses many different types of bioenergy sources, including bioethanol and biodiesel. There are also biofuels made from biogas, biomass, and even landfill gas! Biofuels have been around for thousands of years but were never as popular until recently…
Adoption of renewable energy systems for your facility
Adoption of renewable energy. Unlike non-renewable forms of energy such as fossil fuels, renewable energy systems utilize unlimited resources that are replenished time after time. Most countries are endowed with renewable energy resources such as solar, wind, geothermal, small hydro, etc. Depending on what renewable energy resources are available in your location, it is important…
100% renewable energy
With the increasing awareness of consumers wanting to go green and the need to fight climate change, the private sector has joined the government and the civil society in efforts to transitioning to clean energy. Well-known companies like Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc have already achieved the 100% renewable electricity target to power their facilities around the…
How profitable is biogas for food processing companies?
Why biogas? Farmers, food processing companies, and other stakeholders will have an important role to play when it comes to reducing food waste via the biogas generator. Food waste is one of the biggest contributors to climate change. If food waste were a country, it would come in third after the United States and China…
