Capturing Waste Heat to Produce Electricity
by Bruce Goodman
Pro Renewables of Portage, Michigan plans to make it possible for industry to use wasted energy to produce its own electricity. As the Midwest distributor of the 50 kW Green Machine produced by ElectraTherm Inc., the company will be selling and installing the equipment which can capture heat normally wasted in manufacturing and use that heat to create electricity. The ROI on the $150,000 to $200,000 equipment is anticipated to be five years or less (without applying any incentives).
