The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management, through the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) federal grant program, awarded a $8,946,563 Cooperative Agreement to Windfall Bio, Inc. to adapt their methane bioconversion technology for a full-scale system designed to operate as a flare replacement system on an operating oil production site. The objective is to gather well-site gas that would otherwise be emitted or flared, and facilitate the beneficial use of the gas by converting it to high-value organic fertilizer. This system is intended to dramatically reduce the methane and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions associated with current flaring practices, while providing local benefits. The award has a performance period from January 17, 2025 to September 30, 2025.
