Cleantech Transit, Inc. (CLNO)

A major advantage of using biomass as a source of fuels or chemicals is its renewability. Utilizing sunlight energy in photosynthesis, plants metabolize atmospheric carbon dioxide to synthesize biomass.
Biomass energy is derived from five distinct energy sources: garbage, wood, waste, landfill gases, and alcohol fuels. Wood energy is derived both from direct use of harvested wood as a fuel and from wood waste streams. The largest source of energy from wood is pulping liquor or “black liquor,” a waste product from processes of the pulp, paper and paperboard industry. Waste energy is the second-largest source of biomass energy. The main contributors of waste energy are municipal solid waste (MSW), manufacturing waste, and landfill gas. Biomass alcohol fuel, or ethanol, is derived primarily from sugarcane and corn. It can be used directly as a fuel or as an additive to gasoline.

Cleantech Transit Inc. was founded to capitalize on technology advances and manufacturing opportunities in the growing clean energy public transportation sector. The Company has expanded its focus to invest directly in specific green projects. Recognizing the many economic and operational advances of converting wood waste into renewable sources of energy, Cleantech has selected to invest in Phoenix Energy (www.phoenixenergy.net). This project could generate benefit the Company’s manufacturing clients worldwide.

Cleantech Transit Inc. recently announced that it has successfully signed a term sheet with Phoenix Energy (www.phoenixenergy.net), a manufacturer and distributor of biomass-generated power plants.
Under the terms of the agreement, Cleantech has an option to acquire a 25% interest into Phoenix Energy’s asset base, which includes a fully constructed, one-half megawatt (500 kilowatt) biomass energy project located in California. Phoenix Energy has developed an eco-friendly system that converts 100% recyclable agricultural and wood waste (biomass) into cleaner burning energy (heat, electricity) and other salable byproducts.
