UGI Utilities Signs First Agreement to Bring Significant Renewable Natural Gas Supplies into its System
UGI Utilities, Inc. (“UGI Utilities”), a subsidiary of UGI Corporation (NYSE: UGI), announced that the company has signed an agreement with Archaea Energy, LLC (“Archaea”) of Canonsburg, PA to accept delivery of renewable natural gas (“RNG") from the Keystone Landfill located in Dunmore, PA into its distribution system. This is the first RNG supply interconnect agreement UGI Utilities has signed to-date.
The RNG supply will be injected into UGI Utilities’ high-pressure natural gas pipeline serving its distribution system located in Lackawanna County, PA. The landfill gas, a byproduct of naturally decomposing materials in the landfill, will be processed and conditioned to meet UGI Utilities’ gas quality requirements. The project is scheduled to become operational in September 2021.
