Join MCAN for a tour of the Deer Island clean energy site, which includes solar, wind, and anaerobic digestion - back by popular demand! On Wednesday, August 16th, from 9:30AM to 11:30AM, join us at

Deer Island in Winthrop, MA to learn more about anaerobic digestion as a clean energy source. This is a great opportunity to see clean energy up close and think about what additional on-site clean energy options your town might be able to take advantage of. 

Located on a spit of land in Boston Harbor, Deer Island is not only a Sewage Treatment Plant - it is a clean energy powerhouse. In addition to protecting Boston Harbor from pollution (the plant treats waste water from 43 communities in the greater Boston area), Deer Island sources renewable energy from solar panels and wind turbines, as well as an anaerobic digestion facility, all of which will be part of the tour.  Click here to check out pictures from our tour over the summer.
