DTE Biomass Energy

Power Generation

When landfill gas is combusted in an engine or turbine, electricity is generated. Because landfill gas is a renewable resource, renewable energy credits are generated as well.

The power generated from landfill gas is in high demand from utilities seeking to meet their renewable portfolio requirements. In states without a renewable portfolio standard, the renewable energy credits can be traded on the market.

We will contract with your landfill gas recovery operation for interconnect and off-take of the electricity and renewable energy credits and pay you a royalty.
