Vista International, Emerald Energy partner for US biomass power projects

In Colorado, Vista International Technologies, Inc., a specialist in biomass and waste-to-energy projects, and Emerald Energy, LLC, a producer of proprietary high-value agricultural products for biomass feedstock, announced that they have signed a Letter of Intent to collaborate on Closed-Loop Biomass-to-Energy projects in the US and abroad.

According to the agreement, Vista will have an exclusive license to use Emerald Energy’s proprietary MegaFlora tree in Biomass-to-Energy projects in the Western Hemisphere, and will have the right of first refusal on any new territories where Biomass-to-Energy projects using Emerald’s technology may be built in the future.

MegaFlora trees are ideal for Biomass-to-Energy projects due to their hardiness, high-density wood and rapid growth. The trees have no invasive characteristics, have low water requirements, and can be harvested for biomass in only three years, compared to ten or more for most other hardwood feedstocks.
