Another global oil and gas producer announced a commitment to decarbonization and RNG, as Spanish energy company Repsol is investing €20 million into a waste-to-energy project at its Basque refinery, one of the largest in Spain.  Biogas will be generated from urban waste and will be used to help power the refinery’s operating processes.  In addition to the biogas project, Repsol will also be funding one of the largest net-zero emissions synthetic fuel production plants in the world based on green hydrogen generated with renewable energy.

In the United States, the House of Representatives released its proposal to rebuild U.S. communities with infrastructure and innovation, entitled The Moving Forward Act.  The $1.5 trillion proposal includes several tax provisions that will directly benefit the biogas industry, notably the creation of an investment tax credit for RNG- and heat-based biogas systems.  Currently the U.S. has 2,000 operational biogas systems, with the potential to build up to 15,000 systems resulting in an approximate $45 billion capital investment, 374,000 short-term construction jobs, and 25,000 permanent operations jobs.

DTE Energy, an electric and natural gas utility in Michigan, announced its plan to make its natural gas business a net-zero GHG emitter by 2050.  Serving 1.3 million natural gas customers in the state, the utility plans to reach its target through a combination of efficiency measures within its operations and encouraging customers to improve their natural gas consumption efficiencies, as well as integrating a program to allow customers to purchase RNG and carbon credits.

Brian Moynihan, the Chairman and CEO of Bank of America, has challenged every public company to commit to carbon neutrality.  In a panel discussion on stakeholder capitalism and ESG disclosure, Mr. Moynihan argued that a net-zero carbon emissions commitment is key to helping companies re-evaluate their current operational strategies in order to reduce environmental footprints, which could potentially lead to huge business opportunities for clean energy companies.
