Neogenyx Fuels and Adams Land & Cattle Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) Facility Project in Broken Bow, Nebraska

Ameresco-backed Neogenyx Fuels and Adams Land & Cattle have officially commenced construction of a new renewable natural gas (RNG) facility at Adams’ feedlot operation in Broken Bow, Nebraska, marking Neogenyx’s first agricultural RNG project and another investment into manure-to-gas infrastructure in the U.S. Midwest.

Announced on May 19, 2026, the project will convert cattle manure into pipeline-quality RNG. This is while simultaneously reducing methane emissions, lowering waste-management workload and creating circular agricultural by-products for reuse onsite.

The development also aligns with growing institutional interest in agricultural decarbonization assets in the U.S. This follows the strengthening of U.S. clean fuel incentives and a rising demand for low-carbon transportation fuels. Parallel to this development is Nexus W2V’s Kingsbury Bioenergy Complex in Indiana eyeing end-2026 completion. The facility’s feedstock will almost exclusively feature food waste. According to the department of agriculture (USDA), up to 40% of all food in the U.S. is wasted.

Adams Land & Cattle RNG Facility

Adams Land & Cattle RNG Facility project is part of a shift in North America’s renewable gas sector, where feedlot and dairy operators are increasingly partnering with specialist developers to monetize methane previously lost through conventional manure handling. By locating the facility directly at Adams Land & Cattle’s feedlot, the project also secures a consistent high-volume organic feedstock source while reducing logistics costs that often constrain distributed anaerobic digestion economics.

For Ameresco-backed Neogenyx Fuels, the project expands its non-electric fuels platform and strengthens its positioning in the agricultural RNG segment. This is a market increasingly favored for generating environmental credits under U.S. federal and state programs.

Project Scope

The facility will use eight anaerobic digesters to process manure from the Adams feedlot and generate over 4,400 standard cubic feet per minute of biogas. The raw biogas will then be upgraded into:

  • 1.2 million MMBtu per year of pipeline-quality RNG
  • Gas injected into the local natural gas network
  • Output targeted for transportation fuel and energy markets

The facility will avoid approximately 63,700 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually. Digestate by-products will also be repurposed onsite as livestock bedding and plant fertilizer. This circular design improves operational economics while supporting waste minimization.

Additionally, while project cost has not been publicly disclosed yet, the project adds to Neogenyx’s broader development portfolio. A portfolio which now exceeds 13.2 million MMBtu/year of non-electric renewable fuel capacity.
