East Coast Energy Solutions

East Coast Energy Solutions - Ethanol Made In The USA!

Introduction

East Coast Energy Solutions is working to *reduce our dependence on foreign oil, reduce dependence on petroleum consumption, combat global warming and reduce the pollution of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases being emitted from our cars and trucks in New Jersey. Henry Ford stated, “Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.”

We will be an organization that does their part to help solve our energy problem.

ECES was formed for the sole purpose of building and operating a 40 million-gallon per year environmentally friendly integrated cellulosic ethanol biorefinery facility in New Jersey and on the East Coast. The plant will be a state of the art $120 million renewable energy project utilizing new advanced technology to produce food, feed, fiber, and biofuels (ethanol and biodisesel) with the potential to utilize as many renewable synergies as are feasible.

Conversion to Alternative Feedstock

ECES plans on operating it’s facility on 100% cellulose or waste starch feedstock as soon as possible. Feedstocks available to make ethanol in addition to corn are sorghum, sugar beets, fodder beets, hulless barley, corn stover, shredded corn cobs, wheat straw, switchgrass, cattails, wood chips, Municipal Solid Waste, algae, beer-beverage-candy, and paper waste, leaves, grass clippings, unused mill residues, residues from construction and demolition sites, branches, old pallets, and other waste sources.

During the development/construction period ECES will explore each of these alternative feedstocks to determine the ones that are most economically beneficial to both the facility and the local communities.

Ethanol production is made in a “batch process” which allows multi-streaming of feedstocks into the ethanol manufacturing process. Utilizing this “batch process” our facility will have the ability to easily switch feedstocks at any time giving us additional manufacturing flexibility.

The facility will initially utilize corn as feedstock until cellulosic technology is feasible and commercially viable. We intend to purchase as much of our corn supply from our own local farmers as possible. The ethanol will be distributed to blending refineries throughout New Jersey and the Northeast and will provide the ingredients to produce the cleanest, renewable, alternative fuel available today.

Our Mission

We want to make our country and communities a better place to live for coming generations by converting domestically grown plant materials into clean, renewable energy, reduce our dependence on foreign oil and combat global warming. We will seek out local partners and look forward to making a positive difference in the community and in our country! We intend to operate our plant in a safe, efficient and profitable manner creating long-term value for the local farmers, for the local community, for our employees, and for our shareholders. We believe every town can be a bio-town.

Values

As an east coast-based company, we believe that our values of hard work, honesty, and integrity will provide the residents of New Jersey, our local farmers who will deliver feedstocks to our plants, and the local community a better quality of life. What we do today will impact our future and the future of our children and grandchildren.

Economic Engines

Our ethanol manufacturing plant will serve as an economic, industrial, *agricultural and rural economic engine for the surrounding area - creating good-paying jobs, value-added markets for farmers and increased state and local tax revenue.
