Jagman,
[extracting from quote:]
The growing number of landfill gas and biogas projects in Malaysia is the result of a government initiative to supply five percent of the country’s energy demands from renewable energy sources within the next few years.
That is a fine validation of FASC's technology thrust though it perhaps wasn't meant as such. :-)
Tapping into landfill gases is a fine thing to contemplate but will always be a marginal enterprise I would think. The production of biogas per se may not be so marginal.
I just returned from an annual meeting of EPG where I got to display my ignorance of what this AMEX-listed issue is doing. My wife and I were the only shareholders there.
EPG is going whole hog, so to speak, into converting animal waste into biogas. The biogas can then be burned to produce electricity and such is being done. EPG understands, though I did not realize it, that a higher and better use of the gas is for a portable energy source that can, among other things, fuel vehicles.
Ralston Purina and Tyson Foods today are burning poultry droppings directly for heat though Tyson Foods in particular is finding the gubmint is not thrilled with its lackadaisacal efforts in that regard.
While EPG and others may compete on the margins with FASC enterprises, the recycling of waste rather than tapping of gases from landfills is obviously the more productive way to go.
All JMO.
Best, Terry
