The
Company aims to become a leading manufacturer and supplier
of certified premium wood pellets for private households, as well as the nascent
commercial usage in the northeast. Wood pellets
are used in residential space heating stoves specifically designed
to accept pellets. The Company wants to supply the necessary
fuel to allow industrial users to ultimately substitute fossil
fuels and to allow retailers to develop and strengthen their
customer base.
Pellet stoves offer considerable
advantages over traditional stoves including:
- increased ease of operation,
- reduced ash disposal,
- improved combustion efficiency and
- reduced air emissions.
We will rely on the vast supply of available green
wood surrounding the Site.
The Company will create 26 full
time jobs during the initial full year of operations.
There will be approximately 45 construction jobs created during
the build-out. The contractors expect to have an additional 15
jobs created back at their shops. With respect to the amount
of wood that will be delivered as fuel and feedstock (approximately
176,000 tons), it is expected
that there will be a total of approximately 150 to 170 jobs created
for truckers, loggers, attendants at gas stations, portable chipping
operations, pallet operations, local lodging, restaurants, and
stores, etc.
