Overview
Mission
The organization's primary exempt purpose is to promote education, scientific research and development of energy resources as byproducts of dairy farming and related agricultural operations.
What it reported doing in 2011
The organization entered into a contract with the state of California to develop, administer and implement the dairy power production program. The applications received by the organization represent anaerobic digester projects with a total value of more than $27 million.

- Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.
