To add to the chat, the situation with methane digesters is as bizzare. We do a substantial amount of business with the Northern Indiana dairys. Our experience is that the cost of the "free" energy is so expensive that our customers are just selling the gas to the gas company, rather than bothering to generate their own power. Yes methane has its place, but is is EXPENSIVE to install, operate and maintain a biodigester for power production. The best example of this is "Bio Town USA" Renolds Indiana. They had a plan to install digesters for hog manure, and power the "entire town" with the ouput. The area banks could not support the amazing cost of installation and maintenance, hence the deal fell through and ........ you guessed the rest.<BR/>So much for the free energy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27951078.post-77766042642562094412009-02-25T18:49:00.000-06:002009-02-25T18:49:00.000-06:00in ontario the only reason to build wind turbines ...in ontario the only reason to build wind turbines for electrical generatation is overly generous gov't money.. generally people want them if they are the ones getting the "payment or rental"...and there is some weird 20+ year re-newable leases--enough said-regards-kevinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
