Vegawatt(TM) : Waste vegetable oil to generate on-site Electricity

Owl Power Company, developer and manufacturer of clean energy cogeneration systems, has announced Vegawatt(TM),an innovative new cogeneration system for restaurants and food service facilities. Vegawatt(TM) uses waste vegetable oil from any food service operation as a fuel to generate on-site electricity and hot water, saving the restaurant thousands of dollars as well as providing a clean, renewable source of energy. Vegawatt is installed and has been running since early December at Finz Seafood and Grill.

Any food service location with fryers can use the Vegawatt(TM) system to save $800 monthly. It is a fully automated system that requires no intervention or maintenance by restaurant staff, no additional chemicals, and produces no liquid byproducts.
