Case Study

Creek Acres Farm | Amsterdam, NY

Two ambient temperature lagoon cover digester systems at Creek Acres Farm, a 400-cow New York dairy, cutting emissions and earning VER credits.

Historical project details checked against the original EFI case history on September 16, 2026. Reported equipment and operating results describe that project period.
