​Utah Lake was once a pristine body of water that fed hungry pioneers when they first arrived. In 1849 Mormon Leader Parley ​P. Pratt recorded, ”I was at Utah Lake... I saw thousands of fish caught by hand... they simply put their hand into the stream, and threw them out as fast as they could pick them up.” The fish of the lake were over-harvested by the settlers and restocked with non-native species. 

Today thirteen species of fish are native to the lake, only the Utah sucker and endangered June sucker remain. ​​The dominant species in the lake is the common carp, introduced in 1883 as an alternative to the over harvested native fish. The carp is now estimated at 90% of the biomass of the lake and is contributing to a decline in native fish populations by severely altering the ecosystem.
​
Environmental pollution has also caused problems with the lake's ecosystem. Raw sewage was dumped into the lake as late as 1967.

​Renewable Energy Innovations sustains the Governor's Bill: H.C.R. 26, urging for the restoration of Utah Lake and we have secured a Memorandum of Understanding with the  Utah Lake Commission to bring viable comprehensive regional solutions to restore the lake, improve water quality and enhance recreational opportunities. ​​

​Renewable Energy Innovations can bring real solutions to remediate and clean-up these water systems. Our technology will not use any national energy reserves, no fossil fuels and no carbon dioxide emissions – it will be 100% green, sustainable, good for the environment and good for Utah! 
​
​​These solutions include lake water and wastewater treatment, agricultural, dairy, food waste and municipal solid waste. They are designed to be financially sustainable through the by-products of the technology utilized.

​Our engineering teams have a long history of water treatment innovation, pioneering advanced treatment systems for large-scale construction sites across the country.  Some of these systems have been running for 40-60 years without the need for upgrades.​ ​We can remove harmful nutrients, such as phosphorus and other harmful wastewater nutrients out of waterways that can affect flora and fauna.
