HoSt Bio-Energy and Bright Renewables selected to provie RNG technoloy to Kentucky project

In Washington state, HoSt Bio-Energy Systems North America and Bright Renewables North America have been selected to provide Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) technologies for Global NRG Renewables’ distillery waste-to-RNG project in Louisville, Kentucky. The project will convert 105 million gallons per year of distillery waste into high-quality RNG, which can be used for heat, electricity, transportation, and the production of food-grade quality liquid bio-CO2.

HoSt, specialists in continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) anaerobic digesters, will supply three primary digesters and one secondary digester, each with a capacity of 3 million gallons. Bright will provide the biogas upgrading system, with a capacity of 1400 SCFM (standard cubic feet per minute), and the CO2 liquefaction technology, which has a capacity of 600 SCFM. Therefore, all the biogas beneficiation technologies will be integrated and supplied by the HoSt Group, reducing project complexity and risk. Construction of the plant is slated to begin in early 2025 with Swinerton Energy responsible for the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC), as well as commissioning and project handover.
