Project Description

Lent Hill (LH) is the development and operation of a 2MW facility powered by local farmer’s food waste and silage. LH will process 43K gallons of local food waste per day, mitigating 340 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually for lK LIP residents. The project will generate roughly 13,200 megawatt-hours of electricity (MWh) annually which will be sold to a local agricultural producer. The project will also produce 16,820 tons annually of liquid filtrate biochemical fertilizer that LHDF will use to replace the fossil fuel-based chemical fertilizer it currently uses. The project intends to mitigate 340 metric tons of methane annually or 8,500 metric tons of CO2e derived from dairy manure and food waste processed within 30 miles of the facility. This is the equivalent of burning 9.4 million pounds of coal or burning 960,000 gallons of gasoline. The gas is scrubbed free of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a highly toxic chemical, and will go on to produce up to 15 million kWhs in renewable electricity per year, which can power more than 1,300 homes annually.
