In their quest to remove any ecological threats and clean up their own backyard, each and every community or client has a unique set of challenges that can hinder progress. Eden Technology Partners recognizes these intricacies and strives to provide customized and timely solutions.

The following examples and generalized solutions may cover some of the challenges encountered and help provide ideas for helping to progress projects towards fruition.

Challenge
Demands from environmental legislation, socially conscience organizations or community-minded citizens can confound decision makers in their quest for cleaning and greening their local environment. These demands can be exacerbated when assumptions regarding solutions or technical details are not well founded or well defined.

Solution
Changing legislation is time-consuming, so in many communities it may be necessary to establish a call to action to enlist those who are willing to take ownership in the direction of a project. Surprisingly, there are people who aren’t necessarily against cleaning the environment; they just don’t think their efforts will help. That attitude needs to be addressed and changed. Environmental problems need a shared community effort.


Challenge
Understanding that the total cost of a specific project could extend across both the public and private sectors.

Solution
Present a formula that properly assesses the worthiness of the project and then demonstrate in definitive terms how both the public and private sectors realize value.
For example: In the public sector, a project can become an alternative and viable income source.


Challenge
Smaller, yet equally needy, markets can be overlooked by many solution providers. The current thrust in the waste to energy arena is to target the large scale projects in the high cost markets. High cost being landfill fees and energy purchase as the product of processing the waste.

Solution
Some of our clients do not fit the high volume category that many technology providers are gravitating toward. Eden Technology Partners understands the smaller client needs and has been working with our partners to create projects that can be scalable. However the cost for constructing smaller plants is higher and the return on investment not as rapid as larger volume facilities.


Challenge
Expanding populations, increased energy demands and the need to protect a delicate environment.

Solution
As with clients that have a smaller coverage area, Eden Technology Partners looks to future growth where scalability is almost a certainty. Depending upon the requirements of the client, the inputs and outputs can be adjusted accordingly and can keep pace with changing technology.
