NEW YORK, Feb. 1, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Green Energy Resources (Pink Sheets:GRGR) announced today it plans to hire at least  a dozen  people to  meet the $76 million in new export contracts. The positions include primarily administrative and procurement. Applications are currently being accepted by the company with the goal to start filling jobs in the next 30 days.

Green Energy Resources looks to capture a significant market share of the developing U.S.  wood biomass co-firing market. Wood biomass utilization should grow exponentially in 2010 with many global projects being launched including co-firing in the United States and India. Two of the three largest coal burning countries in the world. Coal Burning power generators account for over 51% of electricity generated in the U.S..  Currently the United States consumes well over a billion tons of coal per year according to the Department of Energy statistics. Co-firing typically blends around 10% wood with coal to reduce carbon emissions.  Based on typical averages, over 100 million tons of new wood biomass will be required to meet the co-firing demand.
