Global Leader in Sustainable Energy Production Increases Green Energy Options
Guelph, ON– October 19, 2020: With an ever-growing demand for cleaner energy sources and CO2 reductions, Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) is the hot topic for discussion and action across North America.
RNG, also known as biomethane, is a refined natural gas arising from biogas produced from the bacterial breakdown of organic waste materials through anaerobic digestion. The sources of organics are commonly food and food processing waste, farm animal and plant waste, select industrial wastewaters, and municipal sewage.
This clean industry is experiencing massive growth fueled by the development of technologies and processes designed to extract this valuable and renewable energy resource. It is heavily supported by major organizations, e.g. the American Biogas Council, who provide purity and interconnection guidelines to ensure uniform standards, allowing for the RNG to be injected directly into natural gas utility pipelines for distribution, or for use as a fuel to power vehicles. Leading companies from Anheuser-Busch, L’Oreal to UPS have equally announced their commitment in addressing their global carbon footprint by fueling their businesses with sustainable RNG.
