The Dykes Long Island City rooftop solar installation is being facilitated by the NY-Sun Initiative, a new public-private partnership that was introduced by Governor Cuomo earlier in 2012. Specifically, EnterSolar received an award under NYSERDA's Competitive PV Program (PON 2484), a portion of which be utilized to support the Dykes project. In addition, the project will utilize the NYC Property Tax Abatement that is available for eligible solar photovoltaic projects.
The Dykes solar project is also expected to utilize ConEdison's innovative and new "Remote Net-Metering" program, whereby surplus electricity generated by the Dykes LIC rooftop solar system can be credited to other Dykes locations in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx.

Vecoplan - Planning and implementation of complete processing plants in refuse derived fuel production
In order to reduce the costs involved in the energy-intensive production of cement, many manufacturers are turning to refuse-derived fuels (RDF), considerably reducing the proportion of expensive primary fuels they would normally use. Solid fuels are being increasingly used - these might be used tyres, waste wood or mixtures of plastics, paper, composite materials and textiles. Vecoplan provides operators of cement plants with proven and robust components for conveying the material and separating iron and impurities, efficient receiving stations, storage systems and, of course, efficient shredders for an output in various qualities.
