Waste-to-energy project eyed near Penrose airport
Renewable Developers Penrose 1 LLC seeks permit from the North Carolina Utilities Commission to build a waste-to-energy plant on a tree farm beside the Transylvania County Airport in Penrose. The facility would burn wood chips and municipal solid waste to generate up to 4 megawatts per hour for sale to Duke Energy, with future rail delivery possible but currently using trucks only. The project faces local opposition online, while the developer aims for a fall closing and a 12 month construction plan to begin producing electricity by 2015.
