BioFuels Energy, LLC (“BFE”) has secured long term bio-gas rights from the Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Facility.
(By-product of competitive RFQ/RFP Process) BFE purifies the digester gas such that the end product
meets the new SDG&E pipeline injection standards (Rule 30) [First project in the State of California to do so]
BFE nominates the cleaned biogas (“directed biogas”) to the BioFuels customers and provides renewable energy under a long term Power Purchase Agreement:• University of California San Diego (2.8 MW)• City of San Diego South Bay Water Reclaimation
Plant (1.4 MW) $45 M Total Capital Cost

Significant Biogas Project Issues
Variability of Digester Gas Supply in establishing Plant Capacity (Design for swings vs average)
Interface with existing site flares Responsibility for installation of utility
gas interconnection Location of Gas Extraction Location
(impact on digester dome pressure)

Challenges toExpanding/Developing Biogas
Projects Cost of Biogas interconnect too high and installation
is provided on a cost plus basis from the utility Interconnect $1.084M/$8.119M – actual $ 1.99M Uncertainty over requirement for new BTU District Challenge of matching significantly reduced natural
gas prices; renewable premium not sufficient to cover price differential
No long term market for RINS Impact on operation of continuous siloxane
monitoring Changing Biogas Quality Injection Requirements Difficulty of securing a guarantee to meet Rule 30 Reduced SGIP/Grant Incentives

Alternate Uses for Renewable Biogas
Renewable CNG as a Transportation Fuel
As “Directed Biogas” for use in new Energy Generation Facilities
For Sale to Investor Owned Utilities as Fuel in existing generation units to meet RPS goals
For Sale to Commercial, Industrial, & Institutional Customers (boiler or generation applications)
