Company Description:
Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Zilkha Biomass Energy is one of the worlds leaders in innovative alternative energy solutions utilizing biomass. Zilkha Biomass Energy makes power out of woody biomass and produces base loaded natural renewable fuel providing good long term jobs both in the field and in our plants. Zilkha Biomass Fuels produces the Zilkha Black Pellet, a proprietary waterproof biomass pellet that is transportable like coal and is the Clean Renewable Alternative to Coal. Zilkha Biomass Power operates a proprietary direct-fired biomass-fueled gas turbine unit that powers commercial and industrial facilities. Zilkha Biomass Energy is an Equal Opportunity Employer - M/F/D/V.
BIOMASS IS the worlds oldest & most efficient solar battery.
The amount of sunlight that reaches the earths surface during one hour is sufficient to power the entire world for a year (1). But the question is: How do we collect that energy? Sunlight disperses everywhere, shining all over the whole globe, making the energy very difficult to collect in a concentrated amount. While a tiny bit of this sunlight powers solar generators, a huge amount of this sunlight feeds trees and plants. And then these trees and plants store energy in their cells and, in effect, become solar batteries. By harvesting these solar batteriesthis biomasswe are harnessing the power of the sun.
