MADISON – Brightmark Energy, a San Francisco-based waste and
energy development company, announced Thursday, July 25, that it has purchased
an anaerobic digester northwest of Madison
that will convert 90,000 gallons per day of dairy waste from three local farms
into biogas and other useful products.
After planned installation of
gas upgrade equipment is completed, the project is projected to produce enough
renewable natural gas (RNG) to replace at least 50,000 MMBtu of conventional
natural gas each year.
Brightmark Energy purchased the digester from Clean Fuel Partners, which will continue its work on the project by providing operations and maintenance support.
A complete story will appear in the August 1 print edition of The Brillion News.

The Dane
County facility is the first such
facility in the United
States designed to receive biogas from
multiple off-site locations and connect that renewable gas with RNG stations
locally and across the nation.
