Energy Programs. We assist individuals, communities and businesses with planning, project management, funding, and constructing energy projects.  Projects can include energy conservation, energy efficiency, and renewable energy development. 

Current Energy Programs and Projects

Anaerobic Digester - We are assisting Huls' Dairy in Corvallis, MT with construction of an anaerobic digester system to capture and use methane for energy generation, reuse nutrient-rich liquid in irrigation system, generate a bagged-solids soil amendment product, reduce greenhouse gas generation, and offset the dairy's natural gas and hot water requirements.   View a presentation on the project.  For more information on the project email us or contact our office at 406-582-5700.

Small Anaerobic Digester Proposal - We are considering accepting a project to assist a small digester project in Montana.  This second project will focus on a small dairy (approximately 100 cows) in size and produce biogas from the manure that will be converted to compressed gas for use in a vehicle.  Dairies or other farm operations interested in taking part in this project should contact our office at 406-582-5700.

Wind Energy - We're heavily involved with landowners, communities and developers in wind energy.  Through our partnership with MSU Extension, we provide resources and information to help Montanans make informed decisions about wind energy.  Visit Montana State University Extension's website for more information on this program. 

Wind Energy Irrigation Model - We're working on an economic model that irrigators can use to evaluate options for powering irrigation systems through wind energy.  This model is made possible through our partnership with MSU Extension and the Natural Resources Conservation Service.  Contact us if you would like more information on this program.

Energy Revolving Loan Fund - Northern Rocky Mountain RC&D and Economic Development District is working on an exciting program to assist individuals, businesses and communities with energy efficiency, conservation and renewable energy development.  We're looking for funding and resource partners for this program.  Contact us for more information.
