What happened
Chris Freney, who operates a poultry farm in Toongabbie, is exploring a facility to process 35,000 tonnes of poultry litter annually. The project uses anaerobic digestion to break down the organic material, producing biogas and a nutrient-rich residue called digestate. This process also allows for the cultivation of spirulina, an algae used to create natural blue pigments.

Why it matters
The proposed facility aims to generate enough electricity to meet the estimated needs of around 1,200 homes. The approach combines waste management with energy recovery, allowing surplus electricity to potentially be exported to the grid.
