Manure

Calling it a nod for “cow power,” Pacific Gas and Electric Co. announced Thursday that it has singed an agreement with a manure-to-methane producer to deliver 8 MMcf/d of “renewable natural gas” (RNG) produced from cow dung. Promising to leave no meadow cake undigested, PG&E labeled this as its “newest and most innovative” renewable energy project, albeit one of the smallest in terms of energy output.
