GENERATING PROFITABLE RENEWABLE ENERGY

Rock Creek Dairy, a Bettencourt Dairies operation with 9,000 cows, received odor complaints from local residents. To reduce both the odor and methane emissions from Rock Creek’s cows, an anaerobic digester system was installed. Two Cat 3520C gas generators, specifically designed to operate on biogas, convert the gas to electricity. Among numerous other benefits, this technology has resolved odor and methane issues, while producing power for the facility and the local grid.
