The Columbus Consolidated Government is proud to announce a new partnership with The Landfill Group for the construction of a Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) Facility to be located at the Pinegrove MSW Landfill, 9000 Pinegrove Way.

This project represents a collaborative effort between the City of Columbus and The Landfill Group. The Landfill Group began construction of this facility in 2025 after securing all necessary permits, approvals, and contractual agreements.

The Renewable Natural Gas Facility will become fully operational upon completion of construction, which is expected to be completed in the spring of 2026. All extracted methane will be processed and sold to outside users as a renewable energy source, supporting environmental sustainability and responsible landfill management.

To celebrate this partnership and recognize Arbor Day in the State of Georgia, The Landfill Group and the City of Columbus will host a tree-planting ceremony and guided landfill tours for special guests on Friday, February 20, 2026. This event is invitation only and not open to the public as it is an active construction site. An official public ribbon cutting ceremony will be held later once full commercial operations are achieved.
