Business Wire
New River RNG recognized for capturing harmful
greenhouse gases and replacing fossil fuel with innovative
renewable energy solution
OPAL Fuels Inc. (Nasdaq: OPAL), a vertically integrated producer
and distributor of renewable natural gas (RNG) and renewable
electricity, announced its New River RNG facility, which was
created through a close working relationship with New River Solid
Waste Association (NRSWA), has been named Project of the Year by
the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), Florida Section.
The facility is located at the NRSWA municipal solid waste landfill
in Raiford, Florida.
The award recognizes New River RNG’s innovative use of
technology to combat two of the most significant contributors to
climate change: harmful methane gas emissions and transportation
emissions, particularly from the heavy-duty trucking industry. The
facility captures methane that is produced from the decomposition
of organic material at the landfill, and refines it into RNG, a
proven replacement for diesel, providing trucking fleets with a
fuel source that’s cleaner than fossil fuels at no additional cost.
The facility is set to produce approximately 5 million GGE per year
of RNG, which when used as transportation fuel to displace diesel,
will avoid GHG emissions equivalent to achieving zero Scope 1 and
Scope 2 emissions from more than 380 heavy-duty trucks.
“OPAL Fuels is one of the largest developers and operators in
the renewable biogas space, with a decades-long track record of
making projects like New River RNG a reality,” said David Unger,
Executive Vice President, OPAL Fuels. “We are honored that New
River RNG was recognized as Project of the Year. Developing,
constructing, and bringing this facility online was a tremendous
cooperative effort and we thank the New River Solid Waste
Association, Peoples Gas, and the entire team that made Florida’s
first landfill gas to RNG project a reality.”
“This renewable natural gas project is a commitment to
innovation and contribution to waste conversion and energy
recovery,” said Tzufit Boyle, PE, F.ASCE, President, ASCE Florida
Section. “This project is the first in Florida to convert landfill
gas into pipeline-quality renewable natural gas. It is also the
first landfill to interconnect to Florida Gas Transmission's
interstate pipeline and inject processed landfill gas, which is
treated to meet strict pipeline-gas specifications. The Florida
Section of ASCE recognizes outstanding civil engineering
achievements in a branch’s area to highlight the extensive work
done and give proper recognition to the project team.”
The ASCE Florida Section Award Committee scores the nominees for
Project of the Year on several criteria, including innovative
application of new or existing technology, future value to the
engineering profession, social and economic considerations,
complexity of the project, and exceeding client needs.
