From the Paper:

"One of the smallest countries in the world, Belize boasts agriculturally fertile lands. These lands are mainly used to grow sugar cane which is exported to the world. An untapped reservoir of energy is going unused from their sugar cane production. Sugar cane residue, called bagasse, can be converted to electricity through a process called cogeneration. Our team plans to build a cogeneration plant to generate electricity for the country of Belize using bagasse. This electricity will provide an environmentally safe and low cost alternative to all of the citizens of Belize while still allowing the sugar cane producers to export their product."
