Elk River <br /> Municipal Utilities UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br /> TO: FROM: <br /> Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission Tom Sagstetter—Conservation and Key Accounts <br /> John Dietz—Chair Manager <br /> Al Nadeau—Vice Chair <br /> Daryl Thompson—Trustee <br /> MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br /> March 15th, 2016 5.2 <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> Landfill Gas Plant 2015 Operational Results <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> Each year ERMU can provide bonus payments to Sherburne County and the Waste <br /> Management/Elk River Landfill provided the financial means and plant capacity factors are met. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> For the calendar year of 2015 the landfill gas plant had a capacity factor of 95.49%and <br /> generated approximately 25.5 kWh. That is enough electricity to supply 2,900 average <br /> residential customers in Elk River for one year. This year the Waste Management/Elk River <br /> Landfill bonus was $2,584.59, and Sherburne County received a bonus of$20,000 based on the <br /> financials for 2015. <br /> In 2015 there were mechanical issues with the switch gear that resulted in the loss of production <br /> on one engine for almost 5 weeks. This drastically impacted the production and the bonus to <br /> Waste Management/Elk River Landfill. The problems have been corrected and will hopefully <br /> not impact the operational capabilities of the plant as significantly as they did in 2015. <br /> The bonus payments are not guaranteed and can change or be eliminated base on the variability <br /> of labor,material,unexpected or increased maintenance costs, or loss of production for various <br /> reasons. <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> • Letter to Waste Management—LFG to Electric Generation Facility Performance for 2015 <br /> • Letter to Sherburne County—LFG to Electric Generation Facility Performance for 2015 <br /> PMOWERED DY <br /> Eilli Page 1 of 1 NATURE <br /> Reliable Public' <br /> Power Provider P O W E R E D T o S ERV E <br /> 166 <br />
