Energy Projects that we
Fund
Waste-to-Energy:
Waste to Energy is the process of converting waste materials
from Landfills, sludge Ponds, and other waste containment sources into
Electrical Energy or other useful Eco-friendly Fuel products such as
Bio-Fuels, "black glass", or Elemental Gasses used in Industrial
grade Generators.
Waste Destruction:
Waste Destruction is the process of utterly destroying, or significantly
reducing waste materials from Landfills and other Waste collection
sources using a variety of advanced technologies that primarily use Ultra-High Heat systems, such as Pyrolysis and Plasma Arc technologies.
Hydroelectric Power:
Hydropower is power that is derived from the force or energy of moving
water, which may be harnessed for useful purposes, such as the creation
of Electrical Energy. At Private Money Search, LLC, we will only consider Hydropower projects
that create Electricity as their main purpose.
Bio-Mass:
Bio-Mass is Energy that is produced in the form of Fuel products
from Organically-based materials. Wood is still the primary resource to create
Bio-Mass Fuel products, but other materials, such as Wood residues from Timber
and farming operations, an ever growing variety of Plants, and even the
Organic components in Landfills and Sludge Ponds, are all able to be used as
resources for Bio-Mass products. Bio-Mass products can range from
"hard" long burning Wood Pellets to Bio-Fuels.
Bio-Fuels:
Bio-Fuels can be created from Bio-Mass operations involving materials as
diverse as Plants to Tires. Ethanol and Bio-Diesel are the two main forms of
Bio-Fuels that are produced primarily from Organic "feedstock"
materials such as Wood, Plants, Algae, and organic components of Landfills
and Sludge Ponds. Some Waste-to-Energy facilities can even make
High grade Bio-Fuels such as Jet Fuels, through the use of a Fisher-Trope
device that converts Waste gasses created during destruction operations into a
liquid, which is then processed into a Bio-Fuel.
Solar:
Solar Power is simply the process of converting the Sun's heat from
sunlight into Electrical Power. There are many good technologies available
today where sunlight and the Sun's heat can be converted into Electricity
and new and ever more efficient technologies are being developed. Some of
the technologies available today include:
- Photovoltaic’s - which convert Sunlight directly into Electrical
Power,
- "Concentrated" Solar Power (CSP) - Which indirectly creates
Power
by concentrating the Sun's heat from sunlight to boil Oil in
pipes, which is
then used to boil water to run Steam Generators to
create Electrical
Power, or
- "Dish" Engine systems which concentrate the heat
from sunlight onto
a "receiver" which causes a piston or turbine to
activate creating the
mechanical power necessary to run a generator to produce
Electricity.
Wind:
The concept of using the force of Wind to create power is a concept that goes
back more than 2,000 years where mankind realized that if they
could "harness the Wind" it could help them produce the energy
they needed to sustain the environments they lived in, by providing the power
they needed with tasks as simple as grinding corn and other crops into
other useful food products, or to provide enough power to pump water out of the
ground to drink and irrigate fields.
Wind Technology has come a long way since those times and today's windmills
produce, almost exclusively, Electrical Power, which is the Power that today’s'
societies need more of than any other form of Power. New designs in blade
technology will allow the new generation of windmills to be even more
efficient, and more Eco-friendly for "Flying" animals such as Birds,
Bats, and Bees that are very important to the fabric of nature.
Operating In-Ground Assets:
We will consider projects that involve extracting known Fuel source
commodities such as Oil or Coal, if the site is currently in operation,
can prove it has reserves to extract, and has a contract with an Investment
Grade entity to purchase the Fuel product that the site produces. We do not
fund "New" sites, or abandoned sites that deal with commodities.... only
existing operations, as a form of "refinancing" the existing site.
Monies from the proceeds of a Loan on an existing site secured by an Investment
Grade contract can be used to finance another operation.
Other Projects we will consider:
Investment Grade Leasing:
We will consider financing for projects that involve leasing space to
"Investment Grade" entities who wish to occupy a site to be used as
Office Space, Corporate operations, Distribution facilities, and even
certain types of Industrial facilities. The site can be an existing site,
or new construction. Most types of industries and sites can be considered, including Healthcare,
Utilities, Financial Institutions, Major Retail, Insurance Companies, and
Industrials, as long as they are of Investment Grade
quality.
Acquisitions of Operating Energy
Sites:
We are able to consider projects that will acquire existing
Energy Sites that operate on an Industrial scale that have Contracts in place
with Investment Grade entities for the product or Energy that the site
produces. Most forms of Energy production will be considered, (Solar,
Wind, Bio-Fuels, Oil Wells, etc.) if they are currently operating,
however, we do not fund the construction of "new" sites that deal
with the extraction of "commodities" such as Oil, Coal, precious
metals, or gasses, or any formerly abandoned sites that dealt with these types
of commodities that a Principal would like
to put back in operation.
