- Description
- Westfield Gas & Electric is a municipal electric and gas company serving approximately 16,000 electric customers and 7,000 gas customers. Currently the City of Westfield has a closed landfill that has the potential of generating 750 kW of electric energy. The project we are about to undertake involves the development of an LFGE project which we hope will demonstrate how waste can be turned into green energy. This project will include the use of waste heat as a source of heat for a greenhouse education project for our Westfield High School students. The overall concept of this project is to demonstrate thru education how this process works and to generate a support for green energy.
