Providing Clean Energy Worldwide

Utilizing biomass as a fuel source, enables Solena's technology to be used anywhere in the world, currently throughout North America, the Caribbean, Europe and South America.

Among Solena's many projects:

• Five 40- megawatt renewable energy plants in California using biomass to help utilities meet mandates and the Renewable Portfolio Standard program.
• A renewable energy plant for a sizable hazardous waste management group in Europe to turn solid and liquid waste into clean energy.
• Two 90-megawatt renewable energy plants for two major European cities that are prohibited from using landfill and incineration, in order to meet renewable energy mandates for the European Union.

BREAKTHROUGH FOR THE TRANSPORTATION INDUSTRY:

Solena is currently devising a revolutionary way to create bio-fuels for the transportation industry, eliminating the need for oil, gas and ethanol. This breakthrough process will not only reduce dependence on fossil fuels but will eliminate the emissions from transportation fuel, currently two-thirds of all global emissions.

Using its groundbreaking micro-algae biomass as an energy source, Solena will turn the algae into syngas with its plasma gasification process. Solena will then implement an advanced Fischer Tropsch process to liquefy the syngas to produce clean diesel and commercial jet fuel.

Benefits:

• Reduce dependence on fossil fuels used for transportation fuel
• Eliminate the emissions of transportation fuel
• Solena's low sulfur diesel can be used directly in diesel cars without retrofitting the car engines as is needed for ethanol-based fuel
• Solena will be able to produce 400 times more algae-based biomass feedstock on the same acreage of land compared to standard energy crops such as corn and sugarcane, sparing precious land for food production
