One very small tiny nice thing about this is that Columbus feeds the city methane pipes with some of its recovered methane from the landfill. So if a part of this used to generate power, it will be a landfill-to-electricity path.

There’s an irony that Columbus also had a trash-burning-power-plant build in the 1980s that worked on and off for about 25 years, which was a completely different path to turn trash into electricity. It had the nickname of the “cash burning powerplant” because of how expensive turned out to be to operate.
