The document proposes two options for converting municipal solid waste into valuable products instead of sending it to landfills. Option 1 involves collecting trash and converting it into fuel through a four-step process at a community-based biorefinery. Option 2 uses a five-step process to collect trash and convert it into electricity using curtain burning technology attached to an energy-producing turbine at community-based plants. The document outlines the potential revenues that could be generated from such projects and provides an overview of the services that SRCGlobal can provide to help municipalities implement these waste conversion options.
Waste Management is developing renewable energy from waste to meet increasing demand for sustainable energy alternatives. They operate landfill gas projects that provide a reliable source of energy for utilities. One project powers 4,000 homes daily. They also operate waste-to-energy plants that burn trash to generate electricity, such as one plant in Florida that produces enough energy for 35,000 homes. Waste Management is responding to concerns about energy security, sustainability and the environment through waste-based renewable energy projects.

This document summarizes the findings of a study on benefit sharing in two community forests in Nepal. It finds that wealthier households receive more benefits from timber resources than poorer households. Poorer households rely more on the forests for fuelwood, fodder, and wild foods. While institutional arrangements aim to provide equal access, elite capture in leadership positions means benefits often favor wealthier users. The community funds generated also disproportionately support infrastructure over pro-poor programs. Recommendations include policy changes to mandate pro-poor activities and mobilizing forestry staff to encourage more equitable benefit sharing focused on poverty alleviation.

Clean Local Energy from Community Choice AggregationJohn Farrell
Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) programs allow local governments to purchase electricity on behalf of their residents and businesses from an alternative supplier while still using existing power lines. CCAs can lower electricity rates, source more renewable energy, and invest savings into local priorities. They give communities control over their energy supply while breaking up utility monopolies. Many regions across the country could implement CCAs to realize greater local benefits from clean, distributed energy resources.
Local Energy Choice with Community Choice AggregationJohn Farrell

An Environmental Chargeback for Data Center and Cloud Computing ConsumersEdward Curry
Government, business, and the general public increasingly agree that the polluter should pay. Carbon dioxide and environmental damage are considered viable chargeable commodities. The net effect of this for data center and cloud computing operators is that they should look to “chargeback” the environmental impacts of their services to the consuming end-users. An environmental chargeback model can have a positive effect on environmental impacts by linking consumers to the indirect impacts of their usage, facilitating clearer understanding of the impact of their actions. In this paper we motivate the need for environmental chargeback mechanisms. The environmental chargeback model is described including requirements, methodology for definition, and environmental impact allocation strategies. The paper details a proof-of-concept within an operational data center together with discussion on experiences gained and future research directions.

Urban waste:
Includes municipal solid waste (MSW), which comprises residential, institutional and
commercial “garbage”, as well as construction and demolition debris (C&D). MSW mainly
consists of paper, glass, metals, household plastics, wood, yard trimmings, food scraps,
rubber, leather and textiles, while C&D debris is usually comprised of concrete, wood,
drywall, asphalt, metal, bricks and unrecyclable industrial plastics
Over 400 million tons of MSW is generated in the USA annually.
4. The benefits of converting non-recyclable urban waste into high-value products, as a
sustainable alternative to disposal, are numerous.
• Communities benefit from a cost-effective and sustainable waste management option.
• Consumers benefit from a clean energy produced from more affordable feedstock.
• Because MSW is readily available in all urban and rural areas, bioenergy production facilities,
and the green jobs they create, can take place in a geographically diverse manner.
• Alternative transportation fuels created from waste are cleaner, thereby they can reduce
overall greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent.
PROPRIETARY & CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
• Less waste in landfills means less methane gas. Methane has 25 times more global warming
impact than CO2, and is normally released from the decomposition of materials in landfills.
• Community based waste-to-bioenergy plants are complementary with existing recycling
programs.
Translates into a potential of more than 12 billion gallons of green fuels.
