ResumoAchieving Zero Net Energy Utilization at Municipal WWTPs: The Gloversville-Johnstown Joint WWTP ExperienceElectricity constitutes between 25 and 40 percent of a typical wastewater treatment plant's (WWTP) operating budget (New York State Energy Research & Development Authority, 2008) and is second typically to only labor costs.
