SMART Papers has broken ground on a $30 million energy production center at its mill in Hamilton, OH, which will use carbon-neutral, 100 percent biomass fuel. By late 2009, all SMART Papers coated and uncoated printing papers will be produced fossil-fuel free with completely renewable energy. By late 2010, the high-efficiency, co-generation facility (known as the Southern Ohio Papermaking Center) will supply green, renewable energy to Ohio and other Midwestern states. The project will also generate carbon credits that can be bought and sold on the open market.
