Generator Minimum Fossil Fraction

The generator minimum fossil fraction is the minimum allowable fossil fraction for a cofired generator operating on a mixture of fossil fuel and biogas. Diesel engines require a certain minimum amount of diesel fuel to ensure proper ignition. Spark-ignition engines might not have any such requirement and, therefore, might be able to operate on pure biogas.
