❌ RNG is synonymous with biogas

✅ RNG is biogas-derived, high-BTU gas that is predominately methane after biogas is upgraded to remove most of the contaminants & a majority of the carbon dioxide (CO2) & nitrogen (N2) found in biogas.

❌ RNG is a fossil fuel

✅ RNG is produced from renewable waste streams (agricultural/food waste, landfills & wastewater treatment plants). Natural Gas comes from limited fossil, geologic, or natural resource.

❌ RNG use is dirty for our climate

✅ RNG is the cleanest of the alternative fuels. RNG produces net carbon-neutral and even net carbon-negative results when fueling on-road vehicles. RNG motor fuel use has eliminated 7,251,351 metric tons of CO2e over the last five years.

❌ RNG facilities connected to natural gas pipeline infrastructure cause & create more natural gas leaks

✅ RNG producers continuously strive to eliminate leaks from pipeline interconnection to maximize the supply of RNG.

❌ Policies supporting methane mitigation & utilization create incentives to “expand unsustainable food production” and “create more and larger factory farms.”

✅ On-farm anaerobic digestion & RNG production facilities capture & use methane from these farms that was formerly being flared off or emitted into the air from waste lagoons.
