How can we help you get started on your path to decarbonization?
"Creating economic viability at the nexus of scalable renewable thermal energy solutions and clean water is critical for the success of circular, decarbonized economies"
— Beau Griffey, Principal and Founder
The scalability of renewable thermal solutions is constrained by availability of local resources, incentives and transparent market signals.
Since these factors affect project economics and the viability of technologies, renewable thermal projects more difficult to scale.
Creating scalable solutions is critical to a decarbonized future.
25% Total share of thermal energy consumption across all US sectors. $270b annually.
Total share of global CO2 emissions from thermal energy.
Global share of final energy demand.
We drive scalable decarbonization by connecting stakeholders with projects and solutions that generate measurable benefits to communities, the environment and investors.
ID8 Princeton RNG / Estimated operation in 2021
Upgrading an older anerobic digester technology on a dairy farm and converting to a renewable natural gas project. Delivering up to 50,000 MMBtu of clean transportation fuels per year.
ID8 Ethan RNG / Estimated operation in 2022
Utilizing swine and turkey manure to generate renewable natural gas. This project solves a pipeline capacity challenge for the farmers as well as reducing phosphorous levels in the local watershed. While delivering 100,000+ MMBtu annually of clean fuels.
Ethanol Plant Carbon Intensity Project
Evaluated carbon intensity impact and valued excess energy from a combined heat and power plant to be installed at an ethanol plant. Electricity from the CHP will run the plant operations and the steam from the system will replace current natural gas consumption.
Excess power sales will provide extra return on investment. The efficiency gains on the project lowers the Carbon Intensity of the fuel produced by over 10%.
ID8 partners with farmers, industry, waste companies and communities to transform waste into a significant value stream. We believe in alignment in project performance and a fair return for our partners.
The technologies we deploy provide nutrient management and soil improvement, reduce odor and emissions while improving water quality.
