BP, Clean Energy to push more RNG for transport

BP and Clean Energy Fuels agreed an increased supply of renewable natural gas (RNG) through Clean Energy’s fueling infrastructure as more fleets are requesting the clean fuel.

The agreement enables BP to flow larger volumes to Clean Energy stations as the supply of RNG is expected to rapidly grow over the next several years with a number of new RNG production facilities under construction and more announced.

Clean Energy has grown sales of its RNG from 22 million gasoline-equivalent gallons (GGEs) in 2014, the first full year it was available, to an expected 100 million GGEs in 2018.

Renewable natural gas is derived from biogenic methane, biomethane or biogas, which is methane that is naturally generated by the decomposition of organic waste.

Clean Energy Fuels provides CNG, LNG and RNG as fuel for transport through a network of some 530 stations across North America it owns or operates.
