In a move reflecting the accelerating shift toward clean energy in the U.S. utility sector, Anaergia Inc. has commenced deliveries of renewable natural gas (RNG) to Southwest Gas Corporation's distribution system in California. This milestone follows the conditional approval granted by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) in March 2026. These deliveries mark the first under California's Biomethane Procurement Program (SB 1440), designed to fulfill state-mandated biomethane procurement requirements.
This partnership comes as major utility peers such as Clean Energy Fuels and Ameresco strive to expand their footprint in the renewable gas market, with market data indicating steady growth in long-term ESG-linked contracts. Per market data, Anaergia’s successful activation of its SoCal Biomethane facility positions it competitively within the renewable energy sector, especially as regulatory pressure mounts to reduce carbon emissions in California, the largest energy market in the United States.
