A biomass digester is being built south of Monroe, Washington and will begin accepting feedstock in October.
If all goes as planned, the facility’s generators will begin producing electricity from the methane gas in January, which will be sold to the Snohomish County Public Utility District, according to Dale Reiner, representative for Qualco Energy Corp. Qualco is a non-profit organization that includes representatives from the Sno/Sky Agricultural Alliance, a dairy farmers’ group; Quilceda Power, a subsidiary of the Tulalip Tribes; and the Northwest Chinook Recovery, a nonprofit organization founded in 1997 to preserve, restore, and enhance salmon habitat in the Puget Sound region.
