 | If it is an anaerobic digestion plant, the power plant should be considered as a whole, and you should use plant:source=biomass instead. |
Power plant powered by 
biogas producing electricity and heat at the same time ( cogeneration).
The biogas can come from a landfill site or a wastewater treatment plant.
There is a biogas produced in biogas plant, and then it is used to simultaneously generate electricity and heat in cogeneration unit (reciprocating engine adapted to run on biogas coupled with power generator).
