Vestergaard Bioenergi, Denmark
The cattle farm in Rødkærsbro today has many animals that produce large amounts of manure and cow dung. Vestergaard’s owner made an agreement with a nearby Arla dairy to supply biogas to the dairy, thereby converting agricultural waste into a stable income. The biogas plant was put into operation in March 2017 and has been running successfully ever since.
The daily operation of the biogas plant is handled by the farmer himself and a half-time assistant.
