PAUL IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT OF MULTIPLE ENERGY SYSTEMS AND OPERATIONS IN SAINT PAUL, MN, INCLUDING DISTRICT ENERGY ST. PAUL (DESP), ST. PAUL COGENERATION (SPC), AND ENVIRONMENTAL WOOD SUPPLY (EWS). THESE THREE ENTITIES WORK TOGETHER TO HELP USE LOCAL TREE WASTE (BIOMASS) TO GENERATE HEAT AND ELECTRICITY FOR A LOW-CARBON ENERGY SOLUTION FOR LOCAL CUSTOMERS.
