DALLAS, US: Primoris Services Corporation announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Primoris Renewables, will participate in the construction of two new waste-to-energy facilities under a recently signed cooperative agreement with Synergy Renewables. The construction phase for these projects is scheduled to begin in 2012 with a commercial operation target of Q4 2013. These contracts are expected to generate revenues to Primoris of approximately $40 million.

Synergy Renewables, based in Dallas, Texas, plans to develop and construct multiple waste-to-energy projects worldwide working with Primoris Renewables and Dynamis Energy, LLC, a proprietary technology and development partner based in Boise, Idaho. The first two contracts under this cooperative agreement have been executed with Sunbeam Synergy, LLC to construct two waste-to-energy facilities in Puerto Rico. Sunbeam Synergy, LLC is jointly owned by Synergy Renewables, Sunbeam Caribbean Corporation of Puerto Rico, and Dynamis Energy.

Each of the two facilities will utilize a proprietary process to gasify approximately 180,000 tons of municipal solid waste annually in order to generate 10MWs of clean renewable energy per location, adds a press release.
