Energy 2004 Conference Offset Sources
FuelCell Energy Inc. will donate emission
reductions resulting from the energy generation delivered by operation of the
companies Direct FuelCell® Power plants. The reductions resulted from 1,170 MW
hours of power generated at the companies Danbury and Torrington CT locations.
Because of the DFC’s® Ultra Clean renewable power production, this resulted
in reductions of CO2, NOx, SOx, PM10, and Hg emissions.
