ENERGY CREDIT SALES
Environmentally conscious, Snider Industries has generated "green" power since 1982. In addition to providing all electrical and thermal needs for the plant, and generating revenue from electricity sales to the local utility, the five megawatt biomass power generation facility has been certified by the Public Utility Commission of Texas as generator of Renewable Energy Credits (RECS). They expect to have approximately 32,000 RECS available for purchase annually.
A Renewable Energy Credit (REC) or "green tag", represents one megawatt hour (MWh) of renewable electricity generated and delivered somewhere on the power grid. A REC also represents the environmental benefits of replacing traditional fossil fuel power with power generated using 100% renewable biomass fuel.
