POTSDAM — Potsdam clean-energy company ZeroPoint Clean Tech Inc. has begun producing heat and power at its second site in Newry, Ireland.

The company’s first site is in Germany.

ZeroPoint turns biomass, such as wood chips and agricultural waste, into renewable gas with zero emissions at costs comparable to more traditional fuel.

The gas in Ireland will produce power for the local utility grid.

ZeroPoint is working to create similar sites across North America and Europe.
