At UGI Energy Services (UGIES), we’re committed to providing a variety of energy options for organizations of all sizes and to fuel businesses across countless industries.
As we approach our 30th anniversary, our product and service offerings have significantly expanded. In addition to being a trusted supplier and marketer of natural gas, liquid fuels, and electricity, we are also backed by our own midstream assets and ventures.
While clean and renewable energy has always been integral to our business model, we’ve broadened our offerings to meet growing demand. Those offerings include a sustainable and economic solution for waste disposal, which in turn helps increase America’s supply of Renewable Natural Gas (RNG). Below we delve into the details of the production of RNG from food waste.
Renewable Natural Gas: A Sustainable Solution
UGIES is a leading RNG marketer with over a decade of experience delivering RNG to customers. RNG is a pipeline-quality biomethane that’s interchangeable with traditional natural gas. RNG can be produced from a variety of organic waste materials, including food production and manufacturing plant waste.
Key Features of RNG:
- Pipeline-quality and interchangeable with traditional natural gas
- Created from diverse organic waste sources
- No equipment modifications required for consumption
