The cow's manure from the Blue Spruce Farm in Bridport is used to produce power through the digester at the south side of the barns and some of the liquid manure has also been sent over to a mini greenhouse for growing algae.
A company called algaepower is growing algae using these liquid manure in a specially designed photobioreactor. This is indeed a significant improvement in the waste to energy industry.There are several other companies who are doing a similar kind of research using waste water ponds and algae.
Algepower expects to expand the algae growing operation in coming months and begin producing power sometime next year and Central Vermont Public Service is looking to fund them.
