New Mexico, on the basis of technology for energy has decided to Molokai one of the four places where he works as the world of the benefits of the first level, the power of zero emission hydrogen.
Molokai plant by Jetstream Wind Inc., the solar or wind, or a combination of the two to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen is burned in a gas turbine - much like in a natural gas power plants - and generate enough electricity for 6,000 homes and businesses, says the company.
The company can not disclose the exact location on Molokai for the plant because the negotiations for the site are still under way, said Javier Marquez, head of Wind Jet Contracting Inc network.
The company expects the innovation in the 30 to 60 days, said Marquez.
However, Hawaiian Electric Co. has no contact with the company on the sale of energy by his design for a new plant, said Peter Rosegg, Heco spokesman.
If Jetstream sell the benefits of wind energy Molokai, you need a purchasing power with Maui Electric Co., said Maria Tome, Office of the State of Hawaii Energy Transmission System Manager program. Maui Electric is a subsidiary of Heco.
Jetstream wind began to the islands, its new energy company about 16 months, said Marquez.
"There are many reasons to Hawaii," said Marquez. "The topography of the island, good for us, for the peak periods of production."
The company's plans yesterday in New Mexico, the site of its first floor. The plant cost 219 million U.S. Dollar and is supported by private sources, said Henry Herman, Director of the company.
Herman said Hawaii was amended by the Act 2006 on the promotion of renewable hydrogen-based companies by providing tax credits under the program for renewable hydrogen Hawaii support 10 million U.S. dollars of the Special Fund for hydrogen Investments.
Jetstream wind screams in May after delivering electricity, the use of renewable energies, with none of the emissions from the generation of hydrogen from fossil fuels.
The potential of renewable energies in the energy of hydrogen is determined by tests, but only recently that the technologies for the operation of itself there, Herman said.
"We are the first company had a clear jump in the creation of a system for combinatorial and pieces together to make them viable and the public for the power," he said.
"In general, the 8th grade science is a very, very big," said Herman. "We must turn from green to the freedom of our dependence on foreign oil."
Referring to the concerns of the property, Herman provided some technical details about the internal operation of the proposed wind Jetsteam New Mexico.
The installation, in the July 4 Truth or Consequences, NM, the company is the first power plant is expected that 150 jobs in construction and 30 jobs.
