The Department of Energy is proposing to provide federal funding to the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) for the design and installation of an anaerobic digestion system at the Sacramento Recycling and Transfer Station (BLT Enterprises). The project will deploy the co-digestion of fruits, vegetables, and other organic wastes. Biogas produced will feed the Cosumnes Power Plant or Procter-Gamble Cogeneration facility via a new pipeline to an existing SMUD pipeline.
