Methane Capture and Use (Landfill Demonstration Project
Project Summary
The proposed Methane Gas Capture Project would provide support to an existing project on solid waste management (Second Solid Waste Management Project [Ln. 3752-ME]) to enable the internalization of the global dimension of landfill gas capture and use. Specifically, the GEF support would be used to provide the financial and technical assistance required to demonstrate self-sustaining modern waste management of municipal solid waste that includes capture and use of landfill gas. The GEF project would demonstrate the technology and lay the foundations for widespread introduction of methane capture and use, as a proven technique in the Mexican market.
