BerQ RNG Marks Successful Startup of Michigan Dairy Renewable Natural Gas Facility
BerQ RNG announced the successful start-up of an animal manure anaerobic digester-to-RNG facility located on a dairy farm in Western Michigan. Pipeline-quality RNG has been produced and commercial operations were achieved on June 24.
The facility is expected to deliver over 85,000 MMBtu of RNG annually, equating to approximately 750,000 gasoline gallon equivalents (GGE) of renewable vehicle fuel annually. This RNG will be used as clean fuel for the transportation sector and stands to benefit from the federal Renewable Fuel Standard Program and the Low Carbon Fuel Standard in California. The project is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by over 6,000 metric tons annually and significantly reduce air pollutants.
