Nopetro Energy breaks ground on $50M Florida landfill RNG project
The facility will capture and purify landfill methane for delivery through existing pipelines, supplying a cleaner fuel option for buses and trucks. The groundbreaking ceremony marked the official start of construction on the project, first announced in November 2025, with operations expected to commence in 2027. It featured an unveiling of new site renderings and additional project details, alongside remarks from key stakeholders behind the development.
Owned and operated by Nopetro, the new facility will capture methane gas from the Lena Road Landfill, produced as buried waste decomposes, and upgrade it into high-quality RNG, a carbon net-neutral fuel derived from waste material. The captured biogas will undergo a purification process before being injected into existing pipeline infrastructure, delivering a domestic, affordable and cleaner fuel option for buses and trucks while helping improve local air quality.
