showing that the house does not look any
different than a typical concrete wall poured
foundation. Cost of this style of foundation is
roughly four dollars more a square foot.

Coach Glenn's Solar Panels at his business.
These panels are used to heat the shop floor of
the business. They are very efficient for
heating his floor. Coach Glenn had stated that
this system will pay for itself within the first
eight years of operation.

boiler and turbine are stored.

Boiler and Combustor BuildingInside this
building is where the manure gets burned and
combusted. Shown below is a picture and
explanation of the waste that is saved.4,500
Tank Trucks of Manure per year Reduced to 90
Trailers of Ash that can be used for fertilizer.

Full Bio Dryer MechanismThis picture is showing
the manure being dried somewhat, only to the
point that it still has enough moisture in the
manure so that as it is burned can still produce
enough steam to turn the turbine to create energy.

The actual steam turbine. This is the turbine
that spins from the steam that has been created
from burning a somewhat dried/wet manure to
create the electricity.

Mixing wet manure and dry manureBoth of these
are carefully mixed to create the perfect
mixtures of manure to be burned.
