Clenergen Corp. is a developer of clean biomass power generation systems, with its current focus on the nation of India. The company is using a unique approach to use specifically-grown biomass feedstock in order to power its generators.

The company has gained access to acreage in India for plantations in which to grow specific plants as biomass feedstock for power generation plants. A footprint of only 4,000 acres is sufficient to generate up to 16MW per hour of electricity on an annual basis.

The first plant that Clenergen has identified is a high calorific strain of bamboo (Beema Bamboo) which is capable of producing over 60 tons of biomass a year after year 3 and can be coppiced – cutting it down to near ground level so that many new shoots will appear – on an annual basis.

Clenergen Corp., biomass power developer, recently announced that it has entered into a 15-year power purchase agreement with PTC India Ltd. The agreement is through Clenergen’s wholly owned subsidiary, Clenergen India. PTC India, a public-private partnership company, is the leading provider of power trading solutions in India, and is focused on developing a commercially vibrant power market in the country.

Clenergen currently has plantations in the Tuticorin and Tirunelveli districts in southern India, totaling 4,000 acres, of which 1,200 acres are earmarked for cultivation of bamboo and 2,800 acres for paulownia, two carefully researched and chosen biomass crops. The company plans to lease a total of 16,000 acres for biomass plantations in India, supplying various power plants operating on gasification technology.

Clenergen CEO, Mark Quinn, indicated that the first of the power plants has already started operation in Tuticorin. The 1.5 megawatt

Clenergen Corp., developer of innovative clean energy generation systems, has created a way to produce power, steam, hydrogen, and various other useful products, all through the use of advanced gasification and steam technologies. Instead of dealing with the issue of energy resources – specifically biomass processing – by simply applying engineering principles, Clenergen approaches it from an agronomy/microbiology and plantation management perspective. By so doing, the company is able to deliver a standard, uniform virgin biomass on a commercial scale, at regular intervals, for use in the generation of electricity.

The electricity is generated using proven gasification technology, which disintegrates the biomass releasing syngas. This can then be combusted to power gas turbine generators, or can be burned to release all tar while producing steam to run the turbine generators. The high levels of efficiency and energy conversion produces a consistent source

Solanex Management Inc. focuses on developing, manufacturing, distributing and marketing alternative energy technologies. The company recently announced it has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) for the acquisition of certain sales, marketing and distribution rights for Alten Power Corp.’s waste-to-energy technology.

The deal is in line with Solanex’s decision to strengthen the incineration/gasification component of its business strategy. In the company’s press release, it said the addition of gasification technology of municipal solid waste is an added benefit to potential customers, including municipal, state and federal governments.

Per the agreement, the due diligence period for the LOI will close on or before October 21, 2009. At the closing, Solanex will acquire the rights to Alten Power’s current projects, including assessments for waste-to-energy facilities in Central and South America, the United States and Canada. The transfer will be completed with
