Southern California Gas Company Announces Expansion of California RNG Facility

Calgren Dairy Fuels and Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) today announced that four additional Central Valley dairies have started sending methane produced from cow manure to Calgren's biogas operation in Pixley, where it is processed into high-quality, renewable natural gas (RNG) and injected into SoCalGas' system.

The Calgren facility now collects methane- a potent greenhouse gas that would otherwise escape to the atmosphere and contribute to climate change-from more than 66,000 cows at 10 area dairy farms. The additional dairies are projected to nearly double the amount of RNG produced at the facility, further reducing greenhouse gas emissions and displacing more traditional natural gas. Calgren partnered with Maas Energy Works to develop these four new dairy digesters as well as the previous six dairy digesters that have been operating since 2018.
