    "Clean Energy from Fossil Fuels" The world will continue to depend on fossil fuels for the foreseeable future. To progressively reduce the environmental impact of fossil fuel use, the Oil & Gas Industry must adopt new models of energy generation and supply. TriGen Energy and its partners develop and build energy 'value chains' based on an innovative, proven aerospace oxy-fuel technology, that allows generating low/no emission 'clean' power from -even low quality- fuel gas. As a bonus, the TriGen solution produces, rather than consumes, large amounts of water for agricultural and industrial use.
