LF Bioenergy
About
LF Bioenergy is a renewable energy developer based in Dallas, Texas, focused on producing renewable natural gas (RNG) from dairy farm waste. Founded in 2020, the company collaborates with dairy farmers to create and manage RNG facilities that integrate seamlessly into existing farm operations. LF Bioenergy is supported by Marathon Petroleum Corporation and Cresta Fund Management. The company operates on a farmer-centric model, offering zero upfront costs for participating farms and customizing projects to meet individual needs. After construction, LF Bioenergy manages all operations, including staffing and marketing, allowing farmers to benefit from long-term profits. Their primary product, RNG, is generated through methane capture from dairy waste, which is then converted into clean energy for various applications. LF Bioenergy's initiatives contribute significantly to environmental sustainability, with methane capture efforts equating to the removal of 60 million gasoline miles from the roads. The company aims to expand its operations, with four RNG facilities currently in operation and plans for 15 projects by 2027. Partnering farms also enjoy benefits such as improved soil quality and reduced fertilizer costs.
