NEGATIVE CO₂ EMISSION PROFILE WHEN POWERED BY BIO-METHANE
WELL-TO-WHEEL COMPARISON: Fossil Fuels vs. Renewable Gas Options When comparing fossil fuels with renewable gas options, the benefits of moving away from traditional diesel become clear. Even fossil methane offers a 10% reduction in emissions compared to diesel. However, the most significant improvements are seen with Biomethane, especially when it is produced from an Anaerobic Digester.
Biomethane can achieve up to a 70% reduction in emissions compared to diesel. Furthermore, when Biomethane is generated using liquid manure, the well-to-tank emissions can reach a remarkable -115% of diesel emissions. This negative carbon footprint occurs because methane that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere is captured and used as fuel. By opting for renewable gas options, especially those derived from waste materials like liquid manure, the impact on the environment is dramatically reduced, demonstrating the potential for a carbon-negative energy solution.
