Biofuels Power Corporation

Biofuels Power Corporation (“BFLS”) has been at the forefront of the clean, alternative fuels industry. BFLS was the first company to develop biofueled power plants and has now shifted to small-scale gas-to-liquids('GTL') plants for stranded gas wells. Milestones include the following: 

1. Formed a joint venture with ThyssenKrupp Industrial Solutions(Germany and S. Africa) and Liberty GTL(U.S. and S. Africa) to develop a pilot GTL plant at the BFLS power plant site in Houston. Using equipment and technology prived by the partners, the pilot plant is expected to be commissioning in early 2015.

2. Developed the nation’s first grid-connected biodiesel powered electric generation plant over one year ago in Oak Ridge North (“ORN”), Texas just north of Houston. This plant uses three Caterpillar generators that produce up to 5 MegaWatts as a peaker plant into the Centerpoint Energy connection in the Texas power grid known as ERCOT.

3. Commissioned the largest grid-connected biodiesel project known as The Woodlands Area Renewable Power Plant (“WARPP”) which produces up to 10 MegaWatts using a General Electric Frame 5 turbine connected to the Entergy electric grid which powers eastern Texas and Louisiana.

Alternate Energy Consultants

Alternative Energy Consultants (AEC) specializes in the design and turn key construction of renewable fueled power generation facilities and renewable fuel refineries. AEC has designed and installed two power generation facilities and one biodiesel refinery, located north of Houston, Texas.

Project Templates:

H.O. Clarke Facility - Gas to Liquids Project – Proposed Houston Clean Energy Park will operate a small scale GTL plant using equipment and technologies from ThyssenKrupp(Germany and South Africa) and Liberty GTL(US and S. Africa). Future development includes a field sized GTL plant converting 6.7MMCFD of gas into 500 BPD of syncrude.
WARPP Facility (10 MW) – Biodiesel and renewable oil fueled grid-connected power plant using General Electric Frame 5 turbine generating up to 10 MegaWatts. This template is best suited for military bases and cogeneration operations that can add HRSG steam and CHP.

ORN (5 MW) Power Plant – Biodiesel-fueled peaking plant suitable for business park or municipality site. Three Caterpillar 3516 reciprocating diesel engines are grid-connected with a synchronized control system and substation.

Biodiesel Refinery – 15 million gallon per year skid-mounted process assemblies. Continuous flow design using multiple feedstocks (vegetable oils and animal fats) and various levels of FFA (free fatty acids).
