Aiming for 15 RNG projects to be operational by 2027,
the organization also adds a VP of Commercial to its executive
leadership team
DALLAS, Dec. 11,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- LF Bioenergy, a renewable
natural gas (RNG) company that partners with farmers to produce
energy from methane capture, today announced the expansion of its
RNG project footprint with four operating facilities and two under
construction across the U.S. The operational RNG projects result in
a cumulative environmental benefit equal to reducing 60 million
gasoline miles.
Farmers face increasing pressure from rising prices on
everything from bedding to feed. RNG projects under LF
Bionergy's approach provide a diversified revenue stream for
farmers while also eliminating the need to dispose of cow manure,
improving and optimizing their soil and water quality, reducing
odors, saving money on fertilizer and bedding and reducing
greenhouse gas emissions for the natural gas pipeline.
"We attribute our success to our farmers-first values and
each farm partnership is a testament to that, as we reach 15
operational RNG projects by 2027 and beyond," said CEO
Brent Lilienthal. "We have a robust
and unmatched operational process, and at the core of every project
is our respect for and relationship with the farmers. We founded
the company with that in mind and created a model that doesn't
require farmer investment up front because we want to demonstrate
that their business and its success is our top priority."
RNG projects capture and recover methane, a greenhouse gas with
a global warming potential at least 28 times greater than
carbon dioxide, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA). RNG projects can reduce methane emissions
significantly and can be injected into the natural gas pipeline for
use in thermal applications, electricity generation and more. LF
Bioenergy's facilities contribute to the U.S. Dairy Net Zero
Initiative.
LF Bioenergy also welcomed a new Commercial Vice President
earlier this year to round out its executive leadership team
with experience in U.S. dairy and agriculture, engineering,
construction and operations.
"We're hiring with our ethos in mind," said Lilienthal.
"Our team brings deep experience spanning U.S. dairy and
agricultural, operational safety, energy, utilities and more.
Relationships and collaboration are key to LF Bioenergy's success
and we're eager to continue fueling our business with that
thinking."
