Facility InformationRENEWABLE ENERGY FACILITY Today’s modern, engineered landfill is an environmentally sound system for waste disposal. Landfills offer a clean, renewable energy resource that is generated continuously through the decomposition of the waste. This resource is known as landfill gas. Most landfills collect landfill gas, a greenhouse gas, and burn it in a flare system to destroy it. Instead of simply flaring the gas, Waste Management uses this gas in a variety of applications to create green energy. High Acres is turning landfill gas into electricity.
