| Short description: |
his document
discusses many opportunities to reduce emissions due to energy
use from remediation activities. Examples include energy
efficiency upgrades, implementing on-site renewable energy
projects, and carbon sequestration. An overview of renewable
energy technologies is presented including costs, availability,
applicability, estimated emissions reduction benefits,
considerations, permitting, vendor information, funding
resources and success stories. Renewable energy technologies
covered in this guide are solar, wind, landfill gas, anaerobic
digesters, and gasifiers. Additional methods for utilizing
renewable energy are provided. Similar information is provided
for diesel emissions reduction technologies and cleaner fuels.
This document includes information on reducing diesel emissions
through retrofitting diesel equipment, using cleaner and
alternative fuels, and simple, low-cost practices such as idle
reduction
