After seven years of planning, Vermont Technical College has broken ground on an anaerobic digestion project that will generate heat for the campus, and power that will be sold to the grid.
Permitting for the Central Vermont Recovered Biomass Facility, which will accept about one truck load per day of off-campus food waste, began in summer 2012. It is being built near the campus central heating plant, co-located with the farm fields on the main campus, which it will also take in waste from.
