Renewable Solutions/Oak Grove Facility
The Republic Services Oak Grove Landfill is located in the City ofWinder, Georgia. The landfill gas (LFG) flow is currently about 3,500 scfm and is projected to reach over 5,000 scfm in a few years. The best option for the LFG is the injection of high Btu pipeline quality gas (manufactured gas) into the nearby City ofWinder Gas System. A five-mile pipeline was built to connect Oak Grove to the nearby City of Buford Gas System. This supported maximum gas delivery toWinder, and also increased overall supply reliability for both Buford andWinder through development of an alternative supply to theWilliams pipeline.
