This episode of Digest This: Unpacking Our Sustainable Future examines the rapid expansion of renewable natural gas (RNG) production across the United States and what it means for business decision-makers. Drawing on the latest market data from the American Biogas Council, Emily and Alex break down where more than $2 billion in 2025 biogas investments went, how nearly 2,600 facilities are capturing methane from landfills, farms, food waste, and wastewater, and why 68 of 70 new projects are upgrading to RNG. The discussion explores RNG’s role in decarbonizing transportation fuels, meeting low-carbon fuel standards, and helping fleets, shippers, and large energy users reduce their Scope 1 emissions. The hosts also look at the contribution of biogas and RNG to U.S. energy independence and resilience—highlighting how local projects create 24/7 dispatchable renewable energy, support rural and urban economies, and turn waste challenges into revenue streams. Throughout, the episode offers practical takeaways for companies evaluating RNG offtake, on-site projects, or partnerships as part of their sustainability and energy strategies.
