Biogas Capture and Abatement from Landfill Project

We expedite the transition to renewables with clean energy and carbon abatement solutions. Carbon credits enable a commercially viable flaring project to create additional abatement and potentially a future biogas to power project.

  • Long-term contract with Somerset Regional Council to recover and beneficially use biogas from this regional landfill at Murrumba Road, Esk in Southern Queensland. This improves local air quality, reduces greenhouse gas emissions and contributes to the local economy.

  • No regulatory requirement to capture biogas, however ACCUs enable additional carbon abatement (above its 30% baseline) from a commercially viable flaring project under the Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) Method.

 

  • In 2024, LGI designed and installed a customised biogas management system, including an LGI250 biogas flare for this landfill. Council benefits from this bespoke biogas management system at no cost.

  • LGI collaborates closely with the Council regarding the design, installation, operations and maintenance of the biogas management system, including the monitoring and reporting services provided.
