LCG, Dec. 14, 2001--Energy Developments Ltd. of Melbourne, Australia said this morning it has commissioned two landfill gas-fueled power projects in the United States with a combined capacity of 23 megawatts.

The power from both plants will be purchased by wholesale electricity supplier American Municipal Power of Ohio under a long term power purchase agreement.
