"Renewable natural gas is the only renewable energy source that can be carbon negative and can be used in all the same ways as traditional natural gas. RNG essentially recycles waste, eliminating greenhouse gas emissions produced by that waste, and putting it to good use," said Jawaad Malik, vice president, strategy and sustainability, and chief environmental officer for SoCalGas. "RNG is a highly efficient way to decarbonize buildings and allows home and commercial building owners to use a green fuel while still using gas appliances, which is often the preferred solution. SoCalGas' investment in both RNG and hydrogen will play a key role in helping California meet its environmental goals."
