National Grid Says It Found Plenty of RNG and Hydrogen to Help Decarbonize the Northeast
National Grid says it has located what it calls “robust stocks” of renewable natural gas (RNG) and hydrogen potentially available for customers in Massachusetts and New York.
The stocks were identified through the company’s Northeast clean energy request for information (RFI) issued in May. The company says providing RNG and hydrogen are “essential” to its plan to deliver a fossil-free gas network for customers who do not electrify their homes or businesses. Through the RFI responses, the company determined there will be at least 33 trillion BTUs (TBtus) available in the next three years, more than double the 15 TBtus needed in 2025.
