New Plant Will Convert Landfill Gas to Renewable Energy, Boost Indian River’s Oslo Corridor
As the Oslo Road interchange at Interstate 95 nears completion, the county is looking at ways to improve transportation and inject life into the area. One development is a renewable natural-gas plant being built to provide fuel for clean-air vehicles and consumers.
Nopetro Renewables is spending $40 million to build the plant at 7625 Ninth St. SW., near the Indian River County landfill. It's expected to be completed in the spring.
