Archaea Energy

About This Business

Archaea Energy, a bp company, is a leading provider of renewable natural gas (RNG) solutions, operating in 32 states across the United States, including Pennsylvania, California, Michigan, Oklahoma, and Tennessee. The company's primary focus is on capturing methane from waste to produce high-Btu, pipeline-quality RNG, which serves as a low-carbon replacement for traditional fossil fuel-based natural gas. This process involves the decomposition of organic material in anaerobic conditions, followed by the use of proven membrane gas separation technology to remove impurities and separate CO2. The resulting RNG can be used interchangeably with fossil fuel-based natural gas, making it an ideal substitute for diesel fuel in vehicles, power generation, and as a heating source in buildings, as well as having industrial applications and potential use as a feedstock for renewable hydrogen. Archaea Energy's commitment to sustainability is further underscored by its early-stage development of carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) capabilities, which involve collecting landfill carbon dioxide (CO2) as part of its RNG production process. By leveraging its extensive presence across the United States and its cutting-edge technology, Archaea Energy is poised to make a significant impact in the transition towards a more sustainable energy future. The company's dedication to investing in America and advocating for renewable energy solutions is evident in its operations and initiatives, solidifying its position as a pioneer in the RNG industry. With its robust infrastructure and innovative approach, Archaea Energy is well-equipped to address the growing demand for renewable energy sources, providing a cleaner, more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels. As the company continues to expand its operations and explore new opportunities, it remains committed to its mission of turning waste into renewable natural gas at scale, thereby contributing to a more sustainable future for generations to come.
