Leyline Renewable Capital Investment Brings Landfill Gas Facilities to North Carolina
Leyline Renewable Capital, the leading provider of development stage capital for renewable energy projects, announced its role in funding the development of two facilities in North Carolina to convert landfill gas to renewable natural gas. The facilities, developed by Oregon-based Evensol LLC and currently in construction phase, will bring high-demand clean energy production to the state and enhance sustainability at existing landfills in the area.
Leyline's investment funded the initial development of the Foothills Renewables Project and the Upper Piedmont Renewables Project in Caldwell County and Person County, respectively. Both projects focus on capturing landfill gas, a natural byproduct of the decomposition of organic material in landfills, and converting it into renewable natural gas. The renewable natural gas produced, fully interchangeable with conventional natural gas, can then be used to power vehicles and generate electricity without the need for fracked fuel.
