Our Approach

An 18MW biomass project in Chateaugay, NY

Competitive Advantage

Our approach involves an understanding of the political, technical, construction and operation aspects of biomass fueled energy generation. Our expertise allows us to implement and combine development strategies and technologies to produce sustainable, financially successful projects with attractive rates of return.  Tamarack Energy’s strategy includes the following competitive advantages:

 

  • Experience navigating political and siting/permitting processes throughout the U.S. and internationally

 

  • Ability to evaluate and redeploy facilities and other valuable assets which have been abandoned or underutilized

 

  • Relationships throughout the industry that will drive and facilitate future development opportunities

 

  • Development of risk mitigation strategies to ensure a stable and economically-viable feedstock supply

 

Industry Outlook and Market Opportunity

Tamarack Energy has focused on biomass-derived electric power generation as a successful strategy to address the rapidly expanding market for renewable energy. This focus reflects the market opportunities associated with renewable energy generated using biomass including:

 

  • Access to the market for Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) compliance.  To date, RPS requirements have been adopted by 32 states, including NY, MA, CT, RI, NH, and ME. These standards will require approximately $14 billion in investments in renewable energy in New England and New York.

 

  • Ability to generate base load, dispatchable electricity from a renewable resource.  Most other types of renewable energy are dependant upon intermittent natural resources (i.e. wind or sunlight) to generate electricity.

 

  • Use of widely available and cost stable feedstocks that would otherwise be treated as waste products.

 

As our society shifts towards a carbon-constrained economy, Tamarack Energy anticipates that significant additional regulation at both the state and federal level will occur with regard to greenhouse gases.  The company’s focus on generating renewable energy products allows us to be uniquely poised to offer cost effective solutions to these regulatory and policy mandates.
