Renewable Energy Credits [Abstract]  
RENEWABLE ENERGY CREDITS RENEWABLE ENERGY CREDITSStarting late in 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company has significantly increased the use of coal refuse as the plant increased megawatt capacity. The plant was relatively dormant during the comparative periods ended March 31, 2021. As a result, the Company's usage of coal refuse, which is classified as a Tier II Alternative Energy Source under Pennsylvania law, significantly increased. DEBM acts as the benefactor, on behalf of the Company, in the open market and is invoiced as RECs are realized based on this open market measured by consumer demands. The Company records an offset to fuel costs when RECs are sold to third parties.RECs offset against the costs of fuel operating costs were $532,270 and $203,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 respectively.
