Farm in Mexico is reducing plant cost while reducing emissions
A dairy cattle farm in Mexico operates its biogas plant with an avus 500plus
By installing a 2G CHP system on the farm, they are able to reduce energy costs significantly. The expected savings from implementing this system are estimated to be around 45-50%.

Rancho La Bien Aparecida
This project is located in Queretaro, Mexico, using a single avus 500plus. The project can capture 16,900 tons of CO2 equivalent methane emissions while avoiding 4,200 tons of CO2 electric emissions.
The annual electric production of the project helps the farm save 25-30% compared to the grid. Additionally, when considering the recovered thermal energy, the overall savings increase to 45-50%.
