Toyota is building a facility they call Tri-Gen in the Port of Long Beach that will take biomethane and use it in a 2.3 megawatt plant that produces electricity, water, and compressed hydrogen for their fuel cell semis used in the port.

It is currently on hold due to a dispute with the local electrical utility SCE about how much they should pay for the generated power.
