By Stephan Nielsen - 2013-02-19T14:41:46Z

Cia. Hidro Eletrica do Sao Francisco, a unit of state-controlled power utility Centrais Eletricas Brasileiras SA, plans to build four plants that generate electricity from biogas as part of a 45 million-real ($23 million) research project.

Two facilities will burn gas emitted from urban waste and the other two will use agricultural residues, the Recife, Brazil-based company said today on its website. They will have total capacity of 2.4 megawatts.

The research project also envisages the construction of a laboratory dedicated to biogas, according to the statement.
