AES acquires El Salvador landfill project with CER potential
International generation company AES Corporation (NYSE:AES) has acquired a landfill gas to renewable energy project in Nejapa, El Salvador from Canadian company Biothermica.
Biothermica built the project in 2006 and AES believes the project is likely to generate an average of 400,000 Certified Emissions Reductions (CERs) annually over the next 20 years.
AES Nejapa Gas, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of AES, will own and operate the project at the Nejapa Landfill site. The company also will install and operate energy generation equipment to provide up to 25MW of renewable energy from the capture and combustion of methane.
There was no mention in either company statement of the acquisition cost.

Analyst Reaction |
 ExxonMobil (EM) announced 5 May that it will spend $100m in Wyoming, testing and demonstrating a proprietary CO2/H2S capture technology. If successful, the technology could reduce the cost of carbon capture from natural gas, and possibly coal as well, by 10%-20%. While touted as a green project, the impetus for the demonstration rests largely on financial considerations which are outlined in this note.

Interesting Times 2.0: Second Focus Report on Clean Energy Investment Opportunities in China
31 Jan 2008 |
 Energy security is at the heart of China’s continued political, economic and social development. China is the world’s second-largest energy consumer and its third largest oil importer, and there are no signs of its appetite for energy diminishing. Between 2000 and 2006, China’s energy consumption rose 77.3% and with GDP hitting double digit growth since 2003, China’s energy demand is expected to increase from 970Mtoe in 2000 to 2,800Mtoe by 2020. 123 pages, January 2008
This update to our first major report on clean energy investment opportunities in China (published in September 2006) is structured as follows:
• First, it provides an overview of China’s energy infrastructure and economic backdrop.
• Next it looks at each of the major clean energy sectors, assessing trends, key developments and outlook.
• And, finally, it reviews financial activity in clean energy – from early-stage investment through to public market activity, analysing activity in recent years and describing how we expect each area to develop.
• In addition, the appendixes provide background material on the political and capital market environment that overseas investors in China will have to negotiate.
The Executive Summary can be downloaded below. If you would like the report delivered to you as a one-off, you can purchase it via our secure online payment service here.
This report is one in a series of research reports prepared for subscribers to New Energy Finance’s China Insight Service.
