1-MW fuel cell cogeneration project, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., Chico, California
Beer drinkers know and love Sierra Nevada Brewing Co.'s dedication to bottling premium beers, and that commitment has earned it numerous tasting awards. But it would also win awards on the basis of using clean, high-tech brewing technologies. Sierra Nevada has chosen to minimize its environment footprint by investing in a reuse/reduce/recycle beer-making process. The company has found a way to make its "closed-cycle brewery" a good corporate citizen without compromising bottom-line results.
