California Bioenergy Reaches Significant Development Milestone in the Golden State
California Bioenergy LLC (“CalBio”) announces the successful completion of its 78th dairy digester project in the state of California, marking a significant milestone in the company’s mission to promote sustainable energy solutions and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
By year’s end, with the addition of 8 dairy digester projects in South Dakota, CalBio will have a total of 86 operating digesters built in partnership with 94 dairy farm families. With the commissioning of its newest dairy biomethane cluster in Hilmar, CalBio now operates 7 clusters located across California’s San Joaquin Valley. Clusters are groups of digesters that share a centralized gas clean-up facility, where the captured dairy biogas is upgraded and then injected into a natural gas pipeline. In addition to clusters, CalBio is advancing the development of virtual pipeline projects and digester projects that produce clean electricity for dairies separated geographically from other farms.
