This project aims to tackle emissions associated with landfill waste at the Gaizhou Landfill Site in Gujiazi Village, situated in Liaoning Province, China. By capturing potent methane emissions that would have otherwise been released into the atmosphere, the project converts gas into electricity and supplies it to the Northeast China Power Grid (NEPG). In doing so, the project effectively replaces electricity that is generated from coal-fired power plants, which usually feed the NEPG with energy.
By displacing coal-derived energy from the national grid, the project significantly reduces planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions and simultaneously improves local air quality. The local economy additionally benefits through the project, with 10 jobs created for local workers.
