ZERE | Zero Emissions Renewable Energy

Clean Efficient Power Generation

Zero Emissions

ZERE delivers custom biomass-to-energy solutions with zero emissions. Waste CO₂ is captured, liquefied, and sold to industries that use CO₂, such as bottlers. CO₂ can also be sequestered.

ZERE Moves to Prospect Silicon Valley

ZERE staff will be attending the grand opening of the new Prospect SV facility in San Jose on May 30, 2014. Prospect will be ZERE’s test and demonstration site. Prospect SV’s $12 Million, 22,000 sq. ft. Commercialization Center is equipped to provide companies the basic resources to accelerate path to market for their technology. Through collaboration with its...

Recycle Biomass

ZERE recycles biomass waste that would be disposed in landfills – woody waste, forest residues, and agricultural residues. In California, there are over 31 million bone dry tons per year of available biomass waste – a 40,000 gigawatt per year of fuel potential!

Reduce Landfill

ZERE combined heat and/or power generation is revolutionary in energy production. While solar, wind, and water-powered solutions also provide clean energy; only ZERE biomass reclamation reduces the problem of storing day-to-day organic waste.

ZERE Receives a Grant of nearly $1M from the CEC

ZERE’s receives funding for a prototype of their fuel flexible zero emission distributed generation technology

San Francisco, CA (May 29, 2012) – ZERE Energy and Biofuels, Inc. (ZERE) has been awarded nearly 1 million dollars from the California Energy Commission (Energy Commission) to demonstrate a fuel flexible combined heat...

Reduce Operating Costs

Using biomass waste as fuel, the ZERE plant generates on-site heat and/or power for waste aggregators, eliminating their need to purchase energy to run operations. ZERE creates a cheap stable energy source for heat and power, reduces waste, eliminates dumping costs, and produces no emissions.

Selling captured CO₂ to drink bottlers increases ZERE’s net...

Global Benefits

ZERE plants contribute positively to the global environment by 1) producing a new type of renewable energy using a small footprint, 2) NOT producing the greenhouse gas emissions of traditional biomass plants, 3) reducing biomass waste by efficiently converting organic waste into energy, and 4) reducing industrial carbon footprint.

Opportunity

ZERE (Zero Emissions Renewable Energy) will produce energy from tree/plant clippings, paper waste, and construction debris – whether it is recyclable or destined for landfills. ZERE plants convert this biomass waste into combined heat and power (CHP) with zero emissions.

Market Potential

ZERE converts biomass waste – landfill woody waste, forest residues, and agricultural residues, into renewable energy without emissions. ZERE’s target market is 1-10 MW industrial energy users in states with electricity costs of greater than 9 cents per kWh, e.g. California,

Technology

The ZERE solution uses biomass waste such as wood, paper and grass clippings, or biorefinery waste as fuel for our patent pending process, which then feeds into an off the shelf power generation cycle to produce on-site combined heat and power. The system has inherent CO₂ liquefaction and
