Columbus Consolidated Government and Landfill Group are preparing a ribbon cutting at 10 a.m. on November 12 for a renewable natural gas facility at the Pinegrove Municipal Solid Waste Landfill in Columbus, Georgia. The [Yahoo](https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/columbus-consolidated-government-landfill-group-002048832.html) report says the plant is set to open next month.

## Inside the Pinegrove Renewable Gas Project

Columbus officials announced the upcoming grand opening on Thursday afternoon. The city government worked with [Landfill Group](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/000bfg3/landfill-group) on the project, which is intended to improve environmental sustainability through the deliberate use of landfill gas.

Landfill Group carried out methane testing to assess whether the landfill could support the facility's construction and its long-term operations, according to officials. The methane gas extraction plant has finished construction, though the facility will not open until next month.

Columbus officials say the extraction plant will collect and process methane produced by the landfill. That methane will then be sold to outside users as a renewable energy source. The facility is meant to support efficient management of landfill resources and to encourage recycling of methane gas.

The ribbon cutting takes place at the facility at 9000 Pinegrove Way. Attendees can tour the site and see the facility in full.

Landfill Group is a Charlotte, North Carolina-based private company founded in 1991 as Enerdyne Power Systems that develops, owns and operates landfill gas-to-energy projects producing renewable natural gas, electricity and direct-use energy for municipal and private landfill owners and utility off-takers, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data). The same records list more than 50 landfill gas to energy projects completed or joined across the United States and more than 30 years in the industry.

In September 2021 the company commissioned the Twin Chimneys Power Producers RNG facility in South Carolina, described as the first renewable natural gas project in the state, designed to process landfill gas from a local utility district.
