Montana Cooperative Adds Second Unit to Generate Renewable Energy From Landfill Gas
Flathead Electric Cooperative has been operating its landfill gas project for more than a decade, and the project has been so successful and affordable that it is doubling the capacity by adding an additional unit. The combined capacity of the two units, drawing methane from the same intake system, is expected to provide enough electricity to meet the needs of 3,200 average homes on the cooperative’s 73,000-meter system.
