Welcome To Confluence Energy |
Confluence Energy is a producer of wood pellets primarily used as a heating fuel. We utilize
available biomass in the form of trees that have been killed by the mountain pine beetle, and turn these trees into a usable, stable, sustainable, clean, domestic energy source.
We are excited about participating in the expansion of renewable energy production and
consumption in the US. This energy market, unlike petroleum-based energy, is both produced and consumed domestically, minimizing transportation and political considerations, and optimizing efficiency.
We see enormous growth potential for wood-based fuel products for 3 primary reasons: strong and stable demand growth for heating fuels, tightening supplies (especially domestically), and readily available biomass feedstock. |
