National, NC groups warn EPA that dirty electricity isn't renewable fuel


Washington, D.C.  Over 75 climate and social justice groups sent a letter today to the EPA, calling on Administrator Regan to prevent electricity from wood biomass, factory farm gas, and landfill gas from qualifying under the Renewable Fuel Standard. The signers include numerous grassroots organizations from North Carolina, where now Administrator Regan served as head of the state Department of Environmental Quality from 2017 to 2021.
The letter comes following renewed lobbying pressure from factory farm gas and wood biomass interests to allow electricity from these sources to generate compliance credits, or e-RINs, under the cellulosic mandate of the Renewable Fuel Standard. The groups argue that incentivizing these dirty industries through the Renewable Fuel Standard is incompatible with President Biden’s commitment to center Environmental Justice in climate policy. ....

Democratic state lawmakers ask DEQ to deny water quality permits for Align RNG biogas farms


Align RNG is a partnership between Smithfield Foods and Dominion Energy. The new company plans to build a 30-mile pipeline network among 19 farms in Duplin and Sampson counties that will install or convert one lagoon to a covered gas capture system. The farms will then ship methane generated by the hog waste to a central processing plant along N.C. Highway 24 in Turkey. From there, the Align RNG plant will upgrade the gas and inject it into the Piedmont natural gas line, where it will be purchased from Piedmont by Duke Energy.
However, Align RNG has intentionally not disclosed the full list of the farms, nor their locations, to the public or DEQ. The four farms that plan to participate in the Align RNG project M&M Waters, Benson, Kilpatrick Farm 1, 2, 4 and 5/Merritt Farm and Farm 2037/2038 are corporately owned and operated by Smithfield. ....
