Energy Growing Pains Solved with Sustainable Biogas CHP System
The Challenge
Genset did not generate enough power to burn through biogas, leading to flaring. Unreliability of genset meant numerous major repairs were needed.
Our Solution
Second genset and digester were installed along with CHP (combined heat and power) unit. Valves installed allow units to run on utility gas if necessary.

CHP system installed.
A brewing company generated power from a water treatment facility located on their campus. Using the waste to generate biogas locally, the company fueled a genset with this methane. Growth at the company meant more waste, which the genset was incapable of burning fast enough. Other issues with the genset resulted in major repairs and inability to qualify for rate curtailment.
