Bioenergy DevCo responds to US ban on Russian oil imports
A developer of anaerobic digestion (AD) facilities, Bioenergy DevCo transforms organic waste into RNG and green hydrogen, which could help the US end its reliance on fossil fuels.
“Today’s announcement from President Biden is a critical step forward to address Russia’s unwarranted attack on Ukraine, an independent, sovereign nation,” said Kreloff.
“While crippling a major contributor to the Russian economy, the US is also taking a key step in transitioning our energy portfolio from fossil fuels to one that is powered by renewable sources to create a more energy-independent future.
“Reflecting on President Biden’s remarks to combat the climate crisis, transitioning to renewables and increasing the nation’s clean energy technology will help strengthen our energy independence as the world weans off Russian oil.
“We must transition towards a circular economy model to power our homes, businesses and key infrastructure. Advanced AD technology is a proven way to support this change to clean, green energy, by turning the 103 million tons of food waste we generate annually here in the US into RNG.
“Developers of renewable energy technologies like Bioenergy DevCo and our sister company BTS Biogas have built over 250 anaerobic digesters, and these facilities can help reduce the demand we have long placed on fossil fuels.
“AD, along with other circular sustainable energy sources, can be catalysts for change. We support the Biden Administration’s leadership in transitioning us away from fossil fuels to proven technologies that are green, sustainable, and provide us greater energy independence."
