Massachusetts Climate Bill Includes Anaerobic Digesters in State Peak Energy Incentive Program
Massachusetts will consider certain biogas from anaerobic digesters and landfill gas facilities to be eligible for the state’s peak energy incentive program now that Gov. Charlie Baker has signed H 5060, a major climate bill meant to reduce the state’s dependence on fossil fuels.
Starting in 2023, certain AD facilities will be able to claim energy credits under the state Clean Peak Standard program, which provides incentives for “clean energy technologies,” such as wind or solar, that can supply electricity or reduce demand during peak periods.
