Operational and Under Construction Landfill Gas (LFG) Energy Projects, United States
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This point shapefile contains the latest version of the Landfill Methane Outreach Program (LMOP) database of operational and under construction landfill gas (LFG) energy projects; candidate municipal solid waste landfills having LFG energy potential; and information on additional landfills that could represent LFG energy opportunities. The information contained in the LMOP database is compiled from a variety of sources by the EPA, including annual voluntary submissions by LMOP Partners and industry publications. This layer is a part of a collection of GIS data containing renewable and electric energy information for the U.S., including data on transmission lines, power plants and electricity substations.
- Purpose
- This shapefile can be used to locating and analyze existing and potential landfills sites in the United States for the purpose of methane recovery.
