Did you know? One Ohio farm’s waste is your co-op’s electricity source Ohio electric cooperatives derive up to 3.85 MW of electricity from three agricultural biogas projects in Ohio. The farms direct manure to units called anaerobic biodigesters, which capture methane gas produced by bacteria in the manure and use the methane to turn turbines that generate electricity. Carroll Electric’s power supply cooperative, Buckeye Power, purchases the excess generation from these anaerobic digester systems and flows the power onto the grid via interconnections with Midwest Electric in west-central Ohio and North Western Electric Cooperative and Paulding Putnam Electric Cooperative in northwest Ohio.

Nominating committee The 2019 Nominating Committee has been formed pursuant to the Carroll Electric Code of Regulations and has begun to select board of trustee candidates to place on the Carroll Electric ballot. Candidates representing districts 3, 5, and 6 will be elected.

Using anaerobic digesters is a win-win-win: for the environment, by preventing the methane gas from emitting into the atmosphere; for farms, by diverting waste and creating an electricity source; and for Ohio’s co-ops and their consumers, who benefit from having a variety of ways to produce electricity.
