Primoris Renewables, a subsidiary of Primoris Services Corp, has agreed with Synergy Renewables to construct two new waste-to-energy facilities in Puerto Rico, US.
Primoris Renewables will commence the construction phase for the two projects in this year and a commercial operation expected in the fourth quarter of 2013.
A proprietary process will be implemented by each of the two facilities to gasify about 180,000 tons of municipal solid waste annually in order to generate 10MWs of clean renewable energy per location.
The contracts are expected to generate revenues to Primoris of about $40m.
Synergy Renewables plans to develop and construct multiple waste-to-energy projects worldwide working with Primoris Renewables and Dynamis Energy.
The first two contracts under this cooperative agreement have been executed with Sunbeam Synergy to construct two waste-to-energy facilities in Puerto Rico.
Sunbeam Synergy is jointly owned by Synergy Renewables, Sunbeam Caribbean Corp and Dynamis Energy.
Primoris Renewables is focused on exploiting the growing, worldwide opportunities in developing, funding, acquiring and operating renewable energy projects.
Primoris provides construction, fabrication, maintenance, replacement, water and wastewater, and engineering services to major public utilities, petrochemical companies, energy companies, municipalities, and other customers.
