We're finding low-carbon
energy in unlikely places
Like biogas captured from compost to create Renewable Natural Gas
1
(RNG).
It's a low-carbon
2
energy that can be used in homes and businesses across the
province—and we're adding more to our supply every year.
Our gas system can provide RNG to buildings and developments to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions. This means buildings can meet strict emissions
guidelines without expensive upgrades or retrofits.
Find out more about RNG at fortisbc.com/rngbuild.

Renewable Natural Gas (also called RNG or biomethane) is produced in a different manner than conventional natural gas. It is derived from biogas, which is
produced from decomposing organic waste from landfills, agricultural waste and wastewater from treatment facilities. The biogas is captured and cleaned to
create low-carbon Renewable Natural Gas.

When compared to the lifecycle carbon intensity of conventional natural gas. The burner tip emission factor of
FortisBC's current Renewable Natural Gas (also called RNG or biomethane) portfolio is 0.29 grams of carbon dioxide equivalent per megajoule of energy
(gCO
2
e/MJ). FortisBC's current RNG portfolio lifecycle emissions are -22 gCO
2
e/MJ. This is below B.C.'s low carbon threshold for lifecycle carbon intensity of
36.4 gCO
2
e/MJ as set out in the 2021 B.C. Hydrogen Strategy. FortisBC uses the FortisBC name and logo under license from Fortis Inc. (24-004.27 01/2024)
