The Midddlesex County Utilities Authority (MCUA) is designing and constructing an Advanced Anaerobic Digestion Facility to increase the efficiency of the solids handling process of wastewater treatment. This facility will increase renewable energy production, decrease the weight of sludge processed and reduce overall emissions of the Treatment Plant by approximately 23%

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released applicant self-disclosed information for 22 projects across 17 states that voluntarily shared with DOE that they received a total of nearly $1 billion in allocations from the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Credit (48C). Nine of the self-disclosed projects indicated they are located in 48C energy communities – communities with closed coal mines or coal plants—showcasing the Biden Administration’s commitment to investing in America’s energy communities.
