Meet our Renewable Natural Gas suppliers
One of the ways we’re working to lower emissions is by continuing to acquire lower carbon gases,1 like Renewable Natural Gas2 (RNG). We wouldn’t be able to offer RNG without our dedicated suppliers.
Our suppliers
We work with a range of suppliers to produce RNG from farms, landfills and wastewater treatment plants. See who’s helping us put waste to work, creating sustainable energy and lowering emissions.
Glenmore Landfill
Operation: biogas is captured from landfill waste and upgraded to produce RNG.
Salmon Arm Landfill
Operation: biogas is captured from landfill waste and upgraded to produce RNG.
Hartland Landfill
Operation: biogas is captured from landfill waste and upgraded to produce RNG.
Archaea Energy
Operation: biogas is captured from multiple landfills and upgraded to produce RNG.
Assai
Operation: biogas is captured from the Keystone Landfill and upgraded to produce RNG.
Dicklands Farms:
Operation: biogas is captured from agricultural waste and upgraded to produce RNG.
Faromor CNG Corp.
Operation: biogas is captured from agricultural waste and upgraded to produce RNG.
Fraser Valley Biogas/Evergen Infrastructure Corp.
Operation: biogas is captured from agricultural and commercial food processing waste, then upgraded to produce RNG.
Lethbridge Biogas
Operation: biogas is captured from livestock waste and food processing by-products, then upgraded to produce RNG.
Seabreeze Dairy Farm
Operation: biogas is captured from livestock waste and organic waste from the Metro Vancouver area and then upgraded to produce RNG.
Surrey Biofuel Facility
Operation: biogas is captured from collected curbside organic waste and upgraded to produce RNG.
Generate Upcycle
Operation: biogas is captured from municipal organic waste, food waste and industrial, commercial and institutional waste. It’s then upgraded to produce RNG.
Walker RNG
Operation: biogas is captured from organic waste and upgraded to produce RNG.
Lulu Island Wastewater Treatment Plant
Operation: biogas is captured from organic matter in wastewater and upgraded to produce RNG.
Shell Energy North America (Canada) Inc.
Operation: biogas is captured from organic matter in wastewater and upgraded to produce RNG.
Upcoming projects
We’re continuously looking to partner with more organizations and governments to increase our RNG supply. Here are a few upcoming projects:
- City of Vancouver’s landfill – Delta BC, RNG production facilities are under construction
- REN Energy International Corp. – Fruitvale B.C., RNG production facilities (from wood waste) are under construction
- Regional District of Fraser-Fort George – Foothills Boulevard Regional Landfill, Prince George B.C., RNG project under development

B.C. lower carbon gas supply potential study
To better understand our lower carbon energy future, we commissioned a study together with the Government of British Columbia and the BC Bioenergy Network. It examines the domestic supply potential for different lower carbon gases including RNG. Learn more.
1FortisBC uses the term lower carbon gas to refer collectively to the lower carbon gases or fuels that the utility can produce, use and/or acquire under the Greenhouse Gas Reduction (Clean Energy) Regulation (“Regulation”). The Regulation identifies different sources of gases that are prescribed based on their feedstock and production processes. FortisBC’s lower carbon gas portfolio includes Renewable Natural Gas (also called “RNG”). Other gases and fuels may be added to the portfolio over time. FortisBC’s lower carbon gas portfolio is lower carbon when compared to conventional natural gas.
2Renewable Natural Gas (also called “RNG”) is produced from biogas at dedicated RNG production facilities. Biogas is derived from decomposing organic waste at landfills or agricultural and other organic waste such as wastewater from treatment facilities. The biogas is captured, upgraded and processed to create RNG that is added to existing energy infrastructure. This means we’re unable to direct RNG to a specific customer. However, because RNG displaces conventional natural gas, the more RNG that is added to the gas system, the less conventional natural gas is used.
