KAYSERI MOLU LANDFILL GAS TO ENERGY PROJECT, TURKEY
The biogas power project located near Molu village in Kayseri, Turkey, aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by capturing biogas from a landfill to produce electricity. This initiative not only prevents GHG emissions from the landfill but also contributes to indirect emission reductions by replacing fossil fuels with CO2-neutral biogas for power generation. Key components of the project include the installation of a landfill gas extraction system, an enclosed flare, and a biogas-driven generator set. This project represents a sustainable approach to waste management and renewable energy generation.

Project Overview
The biogas power project is plant to be built close to Molu village of Koca Sinan district in the province of Kayseri in Turkey. The project aims at avoiding greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from existing landfill area by collecting biogas to generate electricity. Thus, in addition to the direct avoidance of GHG emissions, further indirect emission reductions are achieved through the CO2- neutral replacement of fossil fuels used for power generation. The activity includes installation of landfill gas extraction system, an enclosed flare as well as a biogas driven genset for electricity production.
