CII Methane Management IV LLC - 1.6 MW Biomass Power Plant in the United States

CII Methane Management IV LLC is a biomass power plant located in the United States, with coordinates 35.5119, -78.4338. The facility has a capacity of 1.6 MW and operates using waste as its primary fuel source. It is owned by Frontier Operation Services and is currently in operational status. The plant operates under the regulatory framework of the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including the Clean Air Act (CAA) and associated standards such as the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). As a biomass facility using waste fuel, it may be subject to emissions guidelines for commercial and industrial solid waste incineration units. The relatively small capacity of 1.6 MW places it in the small-scale category for power generation. This facility plays a role in managing methane emissions by converting waste into energy, supporting local waste-to-energy initiatives. Its operation contributes to the diversification of the energy mix in the region, providing a renewable source of electricity while reducing landfill waste volumes.

The plant's use of waste as fuel helps reduce methane emissions from landfills, a potent greenhouse gas. Its small capacity minimizes local air quality impacts, though emissions of SOx, NOx, and particulates are regulated under the Clean Air Act. The facility's location in a rural area of North Carolina reduces exposure to densely populated zones, lowering potential health risks from emissions.
