Kentucky's Green Energy Parks plans to establish a $142 million agricultural waste-to-energy facility in Carlisle County. The facility will convert agricultural byproducts, including corn stover and livestock manure, into natural gas and food-grade liquid carbon dioxide.

It will create 20 jobs and produce 1.47 million British thermal units of renewable natural gas annually while processing 575 tons of feedstock per day. The Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority has approved up to $900,000 in tax incentives contingent on job creation metrics.
