Aemetis, Inc. announced that its Aemetis Biogas subsidiary has completed construction and started operation of two additional dairy biogas digesters as part of the company’s biogas production network.
Aemetis now operates 14 dairy digesters that receive manure feedstock from 17 dairy facilities that are expected to produce about 600,000 MMBtu per year of renewable natural gas (RNG). Biogas produced at the digesters is transported by 36 miles of Aemetis pipeline to a central biogas-to-RNG production facility in Keyes, California, which delivers RNG into the PG&E utility gas pipeline. Aemetis has signed agreements with a total of 50 dairies in the area to install digesters.
