McCain Foods, Whittlesey:
In addition to using biogas to fuel its steam boilers, the well-
known manufacturer of potato-based products also runs its
CHP on biogas produced from the site’s anaerobic digestion
(AD) treatment lagoon.
The 1 MWe CHP provides 10% of the site’s electrical load and
the heat energy is used to warm the lagoon.
Other companies are considering the combination of CHP with
AD to accumulate further savings by using fuel produced from
site waste.
