Business Wire
South Jersey Industries (SJI), an energy infrastructure holding
company, and OPAL Fuels Inc. (Nasdaq: OPAL), a vertically
integrated leader in the capture and conversion of biogas into low
carbon intensity renewable natural gas (RNG) and renewable
electricity, announced today that construction has commenced on an
RNG production facility, with an annual design capacity of nearly
0.92 million MMBtus, at the Burlington County Resource Recovery
Complex solid waste landfill in Florence Township, New Jersey. The
project represents the second collaboration between the companies
to develop, construct, own and operate RNG facilities.

Using proven technology, the project will capture methane
produced naturally from the decomposition of organic material from
the Burlington County Resource Recovery Complex and transform it
into RNG, a low-carbon, low-cost transportation fuel. Approximately
6.5 million gas gallons equivalent (GGE) of RNG can be produced
annually from the design capacity of the plant. OPAL Fuels will
distribute the RNG via its fueling station network to heavy-duty
trucks to help lower emissions from these vehicles while also
reducing fuel costs for these fleets. Once fully operational and
when used as a transportation fuel, the RNG produced at the
Burlington County Resource Recovery Complex will reduce methane
emissions from the landfill and avoid the use of fossil fuels, and
is expected to displace over 530,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide
(CO2) per year. As such, the project is addressing the two most
critical greenhouse gas issues causing climate change today:
methane and transportation emissions.
“We are proud to work with SJI to develop the Burlington RNG
facility, encouraging renewable energy production in New Jersey and
supporting the state’s transition to a low carbon economy,” said
Jonathan Maurer, co-CEO, OPAL Fuels. “Burlington is the latest
addition to our growing number of RNG projects, a portfolio of
assets underpinned by a proven solution to bring value to our
landfill partners and fight climate change both at the source of
emissions and in the transportation sector.”
“SJI is proud to partner with OPAL Fuels on the construction of
the Burlington Renewable Natural Gas Facility,” said Mike Renna,
President and CEO of SJI. “We are energized to continue our journey
towards advancing a sustainable energy landscape in New
Jersey.”
