Anaergia Begins Construction of California RNG Project
(Anaergia Services/Biomass Magazine) Anaergia Services LLC and veteran impact investing firm North Sky Capital LLC, are pleased to announce the start of construction of a renewable natural gas facility at the Victor Valley Wastewater Reclamation Authority, located in San Bernardino County, California.
The public private partnership involving VVWRA, Anaergia and North Sky demonstrates a replicable model to meet California organic waste recycling mandates and improve wastewater infrastructure resiliency: retrofitting anaerobic digestion infrastructure to convert organic waste and sludge into pipeline quality renewable natural gas.
The project will utilize Anaergia’s Omnivore high solids anaerobic digestion retrofit to triple capacity and increase redundancy of the existing digester infrastructure. Sludge and food waste will be digested to generate biogas that will be conditioned and upgraded into pipeline quality natural gas utilizing systems designed and supplied by Anaergia affiliates. Additionally, Anaergia will operate the gas upgrading facility.

The project will beneficially reduce more than 6,000 metric tons of methane (1.5 million CO2 tons equivalent) per year, which otherwise would have been flared or released into the atmosphere. The energy generated will be equivalent to displacing more than two million gallons of diesel fuel per year. Additionally, this project is expected to create approximately 30 prevailing wage jobs via construction and related work. READ MORE
