We've had a productive time at BUSINESS OF BIOGAS--learning, networking, and sharing knowledge! Hundreds of industry professionals are leaving today with the connections to keep powering the biogas industry after another day of important sessions. Here's what was on tap last night and today-- ??Rooftop Mixer presented by McLanahan Corporation ??Strategies for managing financing and risk management were shared by Todd Taylor of Avisen Legal, Jon Ellis of Pathward, Mike Land at Virentis Advisors, LLC, Payson Davis of Marsh McLennan Agency and Alfred Johnson of Crux Climate at “Managing Risk and Current Financial Strategies.” ??At “Symbiotic Solutions: Harmonizing Biogas Systems and Farm Operations,” Andrew Wedel, P.E. and Zach Settje of Settje Agri-Services and Engineering, Inc., Lynn Boadwine of Boadwine Farms Inc and Tom Oesch of SWISSLANE DAIRY FARMS INC dove into where integration is needed most and mitigating risks to maximize the operations of both the farm and biogas system. ?? “Monetizing Biogenic CO2: Market Dynamics, Opportunities and Producer Prerequisites” explored the current market dynamics, new opportunities for biogas producers, and the pre-requisites for producers to meet important quality and certification targets with Robert Yeoman of Spectrum Carbonics, Brad Petersen of NLC Energy, Jerome Brenneman of Archaea Energy and consultant Bruce Woerner. What a lineup to wrap up these few days of learning and sharing with the best and brightest in biogas in St. Louis! #BUSINESSOFBIOGAS

We were on Capitol Hill this morning providing a Congressional briefing on biogas systems and how they can deliver enormous economic and clean energy opportunities. Biogas project development is a win for people in rural communities and big cities alike. These systems capture methane emissions and make #renewable energy from organic waste wherever it can be found--at farms, landfills, wastewater reclamation and recovery plants, and food processing facilities--and bring clean energy jobs. Our panel of experts was led by our Policy VP Heather Dziedzic and included Andrew Cassilly of Bioenergy Devco, Kevin W. Bradley, ASQ-CQE of NLC Energy, Daniel Gage of The Transport Project, Michael Jensen of WM, and Brian Vanderbloemen of Bloom Energy.

June is #NationalDairyMonth! Did you know: In the U.S., 370+ dairy farms have operational anaerobic digesters—that represents 11% of American dairy farms that have at least 500 cows. ?? ? Anaerobic digesters are more common at larger dairies, simply because there needs to be enough waste for the investment in a digester to make economic sense. (No, farmers don’t add cows to their farms just so they can build digesters.) That’s why small and mid-sized farms sometimes take in waste from cheesemakers and other food processors. The combined total of waste is then enough to make a digester investment pay off. When two different types of waste are digested together?(food + manure) it’s called co-digestion. This reduces greenhouse gas emissions from food processing facilities as well as farms. ? Biogas systems offer huge environmental and economic benefits to all of us—cutting methane emissions, recycling manure and killing odors and pathogens—all while producing renewable energy and natural fertilizer. They are yet another way that America’s dairy farms are becoming more and more sustainable. ? #BenefitsOfBiogas #Biogas

40%?— A new study shows that landfills in the United States are emitting methane at levels at least?40% higher than previously reported, with leaks accounting for 90% of all measured methane emitted from landfills. We can do better - for starters let's stop sending food waste to landfills and divert to digesters to capture and use the methane for the good, eliminate the emissions and turn this waste into a resource. #zerowaste #zeroemissions

On #NationalAgricultureDay, we recognize and celebrate America’s farmers, who are stewards of the land, water and air. Biogas systems are playing a vital role in helping farmers grow a climate for tomorrow because they recycle manure, food waste, and renewable biomass and farm waste?to produce renewable energy and fuel, while also capturing methane—a potent planet-warming greenhouse gas—that would otherwise be emitted. ? In the U.S., 300+ biogas systems are on farms, assisting swine, dairy, poultry and beef farmers in reducing emissions, protecting waterways and making healthier soil—all while producing renewable energy. https://lnkd.in/dTRuGVTT ? #biogas #renewablenergy #stopmethaneemissions #netzero USDA?
