Why Capturing Renewable Natural Gas Has Legs in the Climate Conversation

Mike Butler, on RealClearEnergy, makes the case for incorporating renewable natural gas in the climate conversation.

The C3 Take
  • Renewable natural gas (RNG) is produced by harvesting methane from organic waste materials and using it to create fuel.
  • Agribusinesses and utility companies are beginning to expand their use of RNG in an effort to reduce their greenhouse gas footprint.
  • In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide reliable energy to consumers, the United States should continue to incorporate RNG in an “all of the above” energy strategy.

“While RNG only makes a small percentage of our energy make-up today, the opportunities are tremendous and should be a part of the clean energy future New Jersey is pursuing. The more solutions we have to meet both our energy needs and environmental goals the better.”
