Benefits
Fulcrum’s technology offers benefits to our feedstock supply partners, customers, communities and the nation. For our feedstock supply partners, we offer cost savings through a less expensive source of waste diversion. We also extend the landfill life at existing capacity levels. For our customers, we offer access to domestically-produced, low-carbon fuels that help them comply with federal and state regulations. For communities, we help increase jobs and economic development, while reducing the expansion of landfills and the amount of garbage transferred there. And for the nation, we create a stable, long-term supply of domestic alternatives to imported petroleum, helping to reduce our dependence on or from other countries.
“Instead of subsidizing yesterday’s energy sources, we need to invest in tomorrow’s. We need to invest in clean, renewable energy. In the long term, that’s the answer. That’s the key to helping families at the pump and reducing our dependence on foreign oil.”
