Rogers, AR Oct. 29, 2024 – Benchmark Group, Inc. (BG) located in Houston, Texas; Dallas, Texas; and Rogers, Arkansas; is excited to announce that Clean Water Ventures, Inc. (CWV), located in Rhode Island, has hired Benchmark Group, Inc. (BG) to conduct architectural design and engineering for its Clean Water – Green Energy and Green Hydrogen Facilities in California.

The first Green CWV Facility design is located on a 5.2-acre site in the city of Lancaster, California, which will be developed in two phases. Phase I will feature CWV secured multiple Reactor Plant operations, to supply the city’s green hydrogen initiatives. Phase II will follow within two years of Phase I’s full operation.

BG and CWV are collaborating on several other CWV locations in California including Brawley, California. CWV builds, owns, operates, and maintains its Clean Water – Green Energy plant facilities in the U.S. and is currently planning global expansion. These innovative facilities will produce green hydrogen, clean energy, and clean water, offering substantial environmental, economic, and social benefits. BG has been able to offer very exciting design elements that complement the 100% sustainable CWV Facilities/Plants.

Nancy Parrillo, Director of Finance of Clean Water Ventures, Inc. said, “Stepping in as Program Director on the projects has been very exciting for me, and working with the BG team has made a very difficult and complicated process much more manageable as they have stepped in to help coordinate the activities of our various consultants so that the necessary work is completed and objectives are met in the most efficient way possible.”

Anthony Sansone, COO of Clean Water Ventures, Inc., stated, “By partnering with BG and their team, we have crafted and are implementing a strategy that will enable us to further reduce commissioning time and maximize earned value on upcoming projects.”
