Join us for a tour of the U.S. Coast Guard Yard's Landfill Gas Energy Project!

This project is the result of a successful collaboration between the U.S. Coast Guard Yard, City of Baltimore, and Ameresco Federal Solutions Group. Under a historic inter-governmental sales agreement, the City of Baltimore is providing landfill gas (LFG) to the USCG from the Quarantine Road Landfill which sits adjacent to the Yard. Under an Energy Savings Performance Contract signed in October 2007, Ameresco constructed a Renewable Energy Center to utilize the LFG to provide electricity and steam to the USCG. The contract is the largest Energy Savings Performance Contract in Coast Guard history and is the Coast Guard's largest renewable energy project ever.
