  Renewable Natural Gas: How fast, how big?

  Gas & LNG

  Renewable natural gas (RNG) offers the tantalizing promise of carbon-negative methane derived from waste streams. Recognizing this, states and corporations have set ambitious targets for RNG. Combined with state and federal subsidies, RNG production has boomed over the past five years. What is the potential scale of future RNG development? Can industry bring down costs? What sources of RNG are prevalent today? Where will we source RNG in 5 to 10 years?

  Hydrogen in Back Up Power Applications

  The gold standard of corporate environmental goals is reliable, clean energy for operations 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Achieving the gold standard is difficult with renewables and battery storage alone. Hydrogen can provide the clean, longer duration storage that ensures large energy consumers or distributed resources require. Join this panel for a discussion of using hydrogen at data centers, telecoms equipment, and more.
