About this episode
Chris Westmoreland and Jason Wozniak explain how Renu Energy Services is transforming oil and gas operations by converting waste into usable energy, cutting emissions, and creating new value from previously discarded resources. They dive into the financial, engineering, and operational challenges of waste-to-energy projects, how AI is improving efficiency and outcomes, and why modular, scalable solutions are key to deploying this technology across both new and existing sites, ultimately reframing waste as an asset rather than a liability.Chris Westmoreland: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-westmoreland-cwi/Jason Wozniak: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wozniakjason/Renu: https://www.renuenergyservices.com0:00 - Intro0:22 - What is Renew Energy Services3:05 - Scale of the Process5:18 - Waste Processing Capacity6:49 - Uses for Process Outputs14:35 - Understanding the Compost Market18:04 - Project Size Considerations21:00 - Financial Basis for Projects22:30 - Overview of Glen Park Facility24:30 - Green Premium Explained27:20 - Understanding Midstream Projects27:50 - Oil Market Journey31:20 - Payment Structures34:08 - Market Entry Strategies38:30 - Oil Utilization40:26 - Long-term Vision for Energy Projects46:28 - Upcoming Stumbling Blocks49:22 - Realizing the Waste Problem52:35 - Significance of the Carbon Cycle57:30 - Supporting Renewable Energy58:44 - How to Get Involved58:58 - Where to Learn Morehttps://twitter.com/collide_iohttps://www.tiktok.com/@collide.iohttps://www.facebook.com/collide.iohttps://www.instagram.com/collide.iohttps://www.youtube.com/@collide_iohttps://bsky.app/profile/digitalwildcatters.bsky.socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/collide-digital-wildcatters
