2. Why SSOE Group?
Cleaner burning fuels, environmentally safe manufacturing, alternative energy experts who deliver the total project … a
perfect-world fantasy? At SSOE we don’t think so. Our experts are making an impact through EPCM services for the fuel cell, solar
and wind energy supply chain as well as in ethanol and biodiesel production. SSOE has already developed a proprietary process
(patent pending) that saves space, energy, and cost in the production of biodiesel. We’re also shaping the future of the energy
market through our work on facilities and pilot plants dedicated to alternative energies research.
What makes us unique? Our alternative energy team is made up of production experts with backgrounds in the food, glass,
and petroleum industries as well as specialists with strong resumes in research-driven fields like chemical and pharmaceutical.
This experience ensures your processes and facility will incorporate the best technology available today and will have the
flexibility to accommodate growth and change in this evolving industry. In addition, we can ensure your facility is just as
environmentally friendly as the product you are manufacturing. Our multi-disciplined LEED® accredited experts focus on
designing facilities that are better for the environment, more energy efficient, cost effective, and healthy for your workforce.
