I've consulted with heavy energy user cement manufacturer whose manufacturing costs is 1/3 energy. Done true cost of burning coal and now company is into wind with initially two turbines on site and tapping the wind farm within the vicinity for energy requirements.
A cement plant in my home town sold out to a foreign company. (also the quarry that was working the same ground. That hurt me, because the foreign company decided to enforce some of the state weight laws, but not all of them.)
They upgraded the plant to produce a lot more cement, but use less coal and metered natural gas. Ran a 8 inch pipe under the state highway to carry the methane collected from the sanitary landfill, use as a fuel source. Semi trailers of paper not clean enough to recycle, unloaded to feed the burner. For about 6 weeks I hauled 25 tons a day of shredded tires in to feed the burner Igloo makes a bunch of defective coolers? Feed the burner.
Sorry, but why did it hurt you when you're making money off them with the hauls?
