North Dakota's Department of Commerce will pass the Department of Energy funding to Blaise Energy for a Flare Gas to Electricity Commercial Viability pilot project. Blaise Energy would use turbine generators to transform wellhead flare gas into high-quality three-phase electricity. This process would use the flare gas to generate electricity and would reduce emissions caused by the flaring of the waste gas.
