US Can Build Over 4,700 Anaerobic Digesters for Renewable Natural Gas
The United States could build around 4,700 anaerobic digester plants to process its organic waste into renewable natural gas, according to a report. The goal is to insulate itself from price volatility and potential energy shocks.
Founder of Energy Vision, Joanna Underwood, suggests that this investment could be made for less than the cost of the Iran war. This move would not only reduce reliance on fossil fuels but also generate revenue through the sale of renewable natural gas.
The use of anaerobic digesters is a proven technology that converts organic waste into biogas, which can be used as a substitute for fossil fuels. By implementing this solution on a large scale, the US could significantly reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the effects of climate change.
