Virginia Natural Gas Receives Approval From Virginia State Corporation Commission for Renewable Natural Gas Pilot Program
A five-year pilot from Virginia Natural Gas aims to encourage the development of renewable natural gas production facilities within the VNG service territory. Recently approved by the Virginia State Corporation Commission, the RNG Interconnect pilot program also authorizes the company to integrate RNG into its natural gas distribution system.
The pilot is part of the energy company's Sustainable Gas Program, which will allow for the production and delivery of RNG into VNG's pipeline system and support the procurement of both RNG and Next Generation Natural Gas. This is complementary to VNG's path to reach net-zero direct greenhouse emissions from its operations by 2050.
