U.S. Gain Partners with Brightmark Energy on Dairy RNG Sites
Appleton, Wis., December 3, 2019 – U.S. Gain, a leader in development, procurement and distribution of renewable natural gas (RNG) reaches an agreement to purchase dairy-based renewable natural gas (RNG) from Brightmark Energy.
Earlier this year, Brightmark Energy announced its investment in Madison, Wisconsin, Yakima County, Washington and Byron, New York dairy farms. Together, these farms will produce enough RNG to fuel greenhouse gas emission savings equivalent to removing 6,981 passenger vehicles from U.S. roadways for one year.
Brightmark Energy selected U.S. Gain as a partner thanks to their gas marketing capabilities, namely, their immediate link to the California transportation market and tenured in-house compliance team. “U.S. Gain has extensive experience with the regulatory programs allowing for the generation of environmental credits when the dispensing the RNG as a transportation fuel, specifically the federal Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), California Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) and Oregon Clean Fuels Program (CFP),” says Bryan Nudelbacher, director of business development for U.S. Gain. “This experience coupled with our connections to obligated parties, enables U.S. Gain to monetize credits at peak values, producing favorable returns for all project partners.”
RNG is the fastest pathway to achieve transportation emission reductions in regions that need it most. U.S. Gain is rapidly expanding their portfolio of RNG supply through a diversified approach including offtake agreements, financing support and capital investment – and is always seeking new opportunities for project collaboration.
