| In January of 2007, The Erie Township, MI Planning Commission formed an exploratory task force, to study the feasibility of constructing a Energy Recovery facility in Erie Township. The Erie Green Energy Recovery project (EGER) was born. The official members are, to date: • Charles Bagwell, Chairman (Bio/Resume) • Gary Wilmoth, Co-Chairman and Facilitator This page will be used to document the project as we move forward. We have been working to identify the best technology to turn Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) and other carbon streams into other usable forms of energy. 04-2008 Update: Our research has paid off! We have identified Electro Plasma Arc Gasification (EPAG) and PWR as the most efficient and cost effective technology on the Planet! Learn more about Plasma Gasification Here and Here. FAQ on the EGER project Erie Township has partnered with SunCrest Energy LLC, of Macomb County, MI. to pursue building a 100MW EPAG plant here in Erie. |
After construction ends there will be approximately 140 permanent, well paying jobs, that will be filled by local qualified personnel. EWE needs a long term Purchase Power Agreement with a Power Broker in order to move forward with the project. We are in negotiations with several, and hope to sign a contract within the next several weeks. Once we sign we will move forward with due diligence in logical steps. We also want to get the whole State of Michigan, and eventually the Nation, on board with us to eliminate all present and future landfills. We want to model the program after the State of Iowa's "Waste not Iowa" program. We will be working with Iowa to get our program started. The tentative name of the non-profit organization is National Association of Citizens Against Landfills" (NACALF) News Articles and other interesting information on EWE: 4-26-08: Waste not want not. 4-26-08: Proposed plant would use ‘lightning' to burn trash 5-1-08: Toledo Blade article 5-2-08: Toledo Glass City Jungle article 5-3-08: Here's an exciting link to a couple of cousin technologies to our proposed EWE project! 5-3-08: Email memo to EWE supporters 5-12-08: Toledo's TV Channel 13 News on EWE 5-27-08: Open letter to Michigan Representative Kathy Angerer 6-7-08: Governor Granholm in Monroe 6-17-08: EWE Chairman's update to community 6-29-08: Planned power plant generates frustration 7-31-08: EWE Chairman's update to community 8-28-08: Erie Township spring/summer Newsletter 9_25-08: Toledo Blade article 11-16-08: New Book: Prescription for the Planet, Chapter 7 (I highly recommend purchasing the book, other chapters are outstanding as well) 11-26-08: EWE Chairman's update to community 2-19-09: Senator Randy Richardville endorses the EWE project 2-19-09: Michigan Senate Energy Committee presentation Youtube videos Do you have questions or concerns about the EWE project?
