Renewable natural gas is a great technology, but we can’t do it alone. So, we’re teaming up with the nation’s largest pork and dairy producers to develop projects across the country. Once all of our projects are developed in the next 10 years, we will reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. by more than 5.5 million metric tons. That’s the same as taking 1.2 million cars off the road or planting more than 90 million new trees each year.

Smithfield Foods

We’ve joined forces with Smithfield Foods to create Align RNG™. Together, we’re harnessing clean energy from hog farms across the U.S. Our first project is up and running in Utah and more are on the way.

Vanguard Renewables

We’ve teamed up with Vanguard Renewables to create clean energy from dairy farms across the U.S. Projects are underway in Georgia, Nevada, Colorado, Texas and Idaho, with more planned nationwide.

Fewer Emissions for the Climate

Over the next 10 years, Dominion Energy’s renewable natural gas partnerships will reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. by the same amount as:

Cutting 5.5 Million Metric Tons of CO2e

Taking 1.2 Million Cars off the Road

Planting More Than 90 Million New Trees
