Wyoming Business Council

he state of Wyoming has teamed with a leader in the energy research industry to study how available technologies could add value to and improve markets for the state’s energy resources.
The Wyoming Business Council, Idaho National Laboratory (INL), and the University of Wyoming School of Energy Resources have partnered to research the viability of transforming the state’s raw energy resources into higher value products.
The study will particularly focus on Hybrid Energy Systems (HES), which combine two or more complimentary resources, such as fossil, renewable or nuclear, to produce a variety of energy products that have much higher values than the commodities alone, for example, transportation fuels, chemical feedstock and electricity.
Hybrid Energy Systems combine raw energy resources with innovative conversion facilities to attain greater efficiency of resource use and plant utilization, resilience to varying market conditions, more efficient deployment of capital, and better stewardship of fossil resources and renewable energy resources like wind and solar.
