(in percentage)
Load factor is based on average beginning and end of year capacity.
Load factor is defined as the average load divided by the peak load in a specific time period.
Anaerobic digestion is a collection of processes by which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen. Anaerobic digestion is widely used as a source of renewable energy.
