Enviro Energy LLC is pleased to support, and participate in, the Catskill Grass Bio-Energy Project, formerly known as the Delaware County Grass Bio-Energy Project, developed by the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Delaware County in partnership with the Catskill Watershed Corporation, the Delaware County Department of Economic Development, and Cornell University.
In an effort facilitate the development of a local grass bio-energy system, this distinguished group is developing a “production to consumption” grass bio-energy pilot project. The basics of this program are as follows:
- To work with farmers to produce and test grass biomass feedstock suitable for combustion purposes. This is not hard, but requires some different management techniques.
- To work with local grass biomass processors, in particular EnviroEnergy LLC of Franklin NY to produce and test grass biomass pellets
- To test and demonstrate bulk delivery and on site handling of grass pellets
- To install, research, and demonstrate residential and small business/municipality scale combustion technologies (pellet stoves and outdoor boilers) that are known to work with grass pellets. This will include a variety of technologies as they emerge in the next 3 years.

Bob … I am the ‘city kid’ who stopped by your place a few days ago. You had given me a small sample of pellets (Thank you very much!)
Is the ash from the stoves useful in any way? Can it be used for fertilizer?
Thank you
