What We Do

Green Energy Partners, in cooperation with PDA Design Services, Inc., has the capability of enabling clients to bring alternative energy projects to fruition.

We are currently working in the fields of bio-energy production, energy conservation projects, bio-fuels, solar, waste to energy, landfill gas to energy, and all things environmentally beneficial.  We are working on all "green" projects.

Engineering, economic development, and project management all allow client goals to be met in a timely and cost effective manner.  Green Energy Partners seeks to create long term business relationships with each of our clients by earning confidence and trust in unsurpassed engineering and consulting work.
 

Approach

  • Assess the total available renewable resources or fuels (biomass, wind, landfill gas, etc.).
  • Select generation technologies that can utilize the resources in the near-term.  These technologies must be commercially available or the technologies themselves are mature, though they may be lacking mass deployment.
  • Translate the resources into electrical energy and technical potential.  Use performance characteristics of select technologies to estimate technical potential.
  • Determine practical potential from technical potential for each resource to be used based on the appropriate criteria.
  • Develop financing assumptions, range of costs, and operating characteristics for such technologies.
  • Calculate levelized costs ($/MWh) for electricity produced from selected renewable technologies given resource availability.
