BMW Manufacturing has received this distinction, in large part, due to the ongoing Landfill Gas to Energy program which began in late 2002. For over 6 years, BMW has collected methane gas from the nearby Palmetto Landfill and transported it through a 9.5 mile pipeline to the Plant's energy center where it provides energy to over 60% of the 2.5 million square foot plant.
