Abstract
A greenhouse is combined with a gas turbine generator set, wherein power, heat and fertilization products are all supplied to the greenhouse by the gas turbine and its exhaust gas in a balanced system for year-round continuous plant production. The system is preferably located at a landfill along with other similar units and is fueled by landfill gas. Excess power from the gas turbine generator in summer months is sold to the electric utility grid as “green power”.
