What are you going to do when the cost of heating your house or business doubles or worse this winter?

What if there was a fuel that was available locally, manufactured locally and actually benefits your local environment?

Welcome to Enviro Energy LLC. We manufacture wood and grass pellet fuel near Wells Bridge, New York. We plan on focusing on grass in the future.

Grass pellets have almost the same BTUs per pound as wood pellets, without ever cutting a tree. Grass crops grown for fuel are not harvested until August. Woody, mature stems make the best pellets. Cutting this late in the summer virtually eliminates wildlife damage as song birds and turkeys are through nesting and fawns are up and away. This permanent sod cover is excellent erosion control and maintains the combination of woods and green open space that makes this area so desirable to wildlife and humans alike.

Pellet stoves and boilers produce 90% less greenhouse gases than fossil fuels and are 10 times under the EPA emission limits. It takes 70 million years to grow a crop of gas or oil, 20 to 100 or more years to grow a tree, but only 70 days to grow a new crop of grass.

There are a multitude of pellet stoves, furnaces, and boilers available to heat anything from a small home to a huge industrial space and everything in between.

    We would like to know if you process hay that we supply
    and we pick up the finished pellets and at what cost to us.

    We would also like to know how much hay we would need
    to make pellets we use approx. 1200 Gallons of heating fuel.

    Mr. Schmid,

    I am the admin of the site and we appreciate your inquiries. Currently the owners are away on business today and will return tomorrow.

    I will forward your inquires to their email and they will get back to you as soon as possible.

    Thank you!

    Dear Miller family,
    I really enjoyed the visit Thursday afternoon and appreciate your taking time for me and Nate Hodges, the Ithaca College student who did the video work. We will edit it after the holidays. I think your business concept is great and hope to see similar operations popping up across the country. Would you be willing to share your economics? You told me you expect to pay $60-70/ton for hay, and sell pellets at around $225/ton. How much did it cost to get set up, and what do you think your eventual operating cost/ton will be? Can I have your cookie recipe? Thanks, Tony

    Tony,

    Thanks for taking the time to stop by our website and leave this comment. We too enjoyed your visit and are glad that you and Nate found it interesting. It is such a pleasure to see the younger generations interested in the future of heat and alternative fuels.

    Regarding the economics, since we are still in the process of perfecting the pellet formula and improving the overall process I think it is premature at this point in time to come up with final numbers.

    All of us at Enviro Energy welcome you and interested students back any time. And, of course you may have the cookie recipe – it is not one of the “secret family recipes!”
