How can a ClearEdge5 system help California reach AB32, which mandates 20% CO2 emission reductions by 2020?
The ClearEdge5 typically emits 1.06 lbs of CO2 per kilowatt hour or roughly 22 tons of CO2 per year when producing 43 MWh of electricity. An equivalent amount of energy from an efficient natural gas power plant for electricity and burning gas for heating will emit about 8.4 lbs of CO2 per kWh. The ClearEdge5 system compared to traditional energy generation offers a reduction of 12 tons of CO2 per year for the same amount of energy (22 tons vs. 34 tons from traditional energy sources). This equates to a 37% reduction in CO2 emissions, helping businesses and residential customers work together to reduce CO2 levels and adhere to AB32.
