Project Profiles from the Intermountain Region
The 1,200 cows at Wadeland Dairy near Ogden, Utah don't just produce milk and other dairy products - they also produce 100 kW of renewable energy. A new design of an anaerobic digester at the dairy converts waste into methane, which fuels a recycled energy system. The system is estimated to save the dairy over $50,000 per year in both energy savings and manure handling costs.
National Project Profile Search
Recycled energy already accounts for nearly 10 percent of our nation's energy - numbering over 4,000 local, clean, and efficient systems and counting - and we have the potential for far more. The DOE's eight regional Clean Energy Application Centers have put together Project Profiles on over 100 individual recycled energy systems across the country, illustrating the diversity, benefits, operating conditions, equipment configurations, and lessons learned from these sites. Use the search tool below to find Project Profiles that match your own site's characteristics.
