Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events [Text Block]	Subsequent Events On September 6, 2016, the Company closed on a sale leaseback with PNC for the Riverside Fuel Cell, LLC power plant which entered into commercial operations in September 2016. Proceeds received from PNC totaled approximately $9.9 million and were partially used to settle outstanding construction period debt to NRG of approximately $1.4 million. A portion of these proceeds will be held in reserve by PNC until the Company satisfies certain conditions which are expected to occur during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2016. Under the terms of the sale leaseback transaction, the Company will make fixed lease payments to PNC for a period of 10 years and have the option of repurchasing the plant early or at the end of the term. While the Company received financing for the full value of the power plant asset, revenue will not be recognized on the sale leaseback transaction. Instead, revenue will be recognized monthly through the sale of electricity under a power purchase agreement. Refer to Note 13 for additional disclosure of the Company’s financing agreements with PNC and NRG.
