Anaergia to Build One of Japan’s Largest Cow Manure to Renewable Energy Facilities
Anaergia Inc. announced plans to construct a biogas plant in Kasaoka, Okayama for Toyo Energy Solution Co., Ltd. The facility will produce renewable electricity using biogas made by anaerobically digesting cow manure from Okayama Prefecture farms.
The plant will prevent about 13,500 tonnes of CO2e in emissions from the manure and from fossil fuels that would have been used to generate the power, the equivalent of taking about 2,900 cars off the road for a year (calculated based on a 20-year Global Warming Potential).
