Rochester Circularity Center
About the project
The Rochester Circularity Center in upstate New York will reduce greenhouse gas each year. Previously, the anaerobic digesters on these farms produced electricity used on-site and transmitted to the local electric grid. However, some of the digesters are more than ten years old, and they had begun to cost more to maintain and operate than they generated in value. Now that refurbishment work is complete, participating farmers are starting to see drastically greater returns on their one operational digester.
