About 808 Renewable Energy Corporation
Headquartered in Huntington Beach, CA, 808 Renewable Energy bridges the gap between industry and investors with renewable energy cogeneration investment packages. 808 Renewable Energy’s primary focus is to provide and manage renewable “green energy” projects for manufacturing companies and other large facilities. This is accomplished by installing or acquiring for clients, cost-free cogeneration, solar and other renewable energy equipment, which lowers energy costs, reduces environmental emissions, and produces a smaller carbon footprint for everyone involved. 808 Renewable Energy’s current project, 808 Energy3, LLC is the largest owner of cogeneration units in the State of California.
808 Renewable Energy’s immediate goal is to acquire or build 100 new green energy power plants that utilize cogeneration and/or solar systems to produce electricity, heat, and/or chilled water, to be placed at moderately sized manufacturing, industrial, and office campus facilities around America. It is believed that this will provide a significant cost savings to each facility where a plant is placed. Major revenue drivers for 808 Renewable Energy are for the sales of generated electricity, heat, and/or chilled water. The Company’s expenses center around the purchase, installation, start-up, permitting, insurance, and maintenance of the renewable energy generation equipment, as well as the cost of raising capital.
808 Renewable Energy offers membership interests in their Energy Projects tailored to meet their primary focus of deriving maximum net income, obtained from cogeneration power and beneficial rebates, as well as significant tax incentives. Investor benefits include certain tax credits, relevant cash flow, and by helping America reduce its dependence on foreign oil, investors, in effect, help solve America’s energy problem. Each Project produces a base minimum return to investors; when usage rates are above the minimum agreed-upon baseline, investor returns increase, as well.
808 Renewable Energy has in place an engineering and maintenance staff capable of handling all design, permitting, maintenance, and upgrades necessary to ensure that their devices operate smoothly and efficiently. To that end, the Company has a depth of experience in the design, manufacture, and supply of state-of-the-art technologies in pollution control, energy, waste-to-energy, energy efficiency systems, and combined heat and power systems (cogeneration mechanical units).
