Hoosier Energy (Hoosier), a Bloomington, Indiana G&T, will be partnering with a local landfill operator to develop a renewable energy facility. The facility will use landfill methane to fuel engines that will produce 4 megawatts of electricity. The project, which will be Hoosier’s fourth landfill methane facility, will provide an additional source of renewable power to Hoosier’s members, which consist of 18 distribution cooperatives.
