Vision RNG, Waste Connections, and Delta Gas Launch Landmark Renewable Natural Gas Facility in Kentucky
Vision RNG has commenced commercial operations at its new Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) facility at the Laurel Ridge Landfill in Lily, Kentucky, in partnership with Waste Connections and Delta Gas. The facility processes about 2,250 standard cubic feet per minute of landfill gas, producing approximately 450,000 MMBtu of RNG annually, equivalent to 3.6 million gallons of gasoline. The RNG is injected into Delta Gas's pipeline network and can be used for transportation fuel, industrial applications, renewable energy production, and carbon footprint reduction. The project was completed ahead of schedule despite industry-wide challenges.
Vision RNG ha avviato le operazioni commerciali presso la sua nuova struttura di Gas Naturale Rinnovabile (RNG) nella discarica di Laurel Ridge a Lily, Kentucky, in collaborazione con Waste Connections e Delta Gas. La struttura elabora circa 2.250 piedi cubi standard di gas di discarica al minuto, producendo circa 450.000 MMBtu di RNG all'anno, equivalenti a 3,6 milioni di galloni di benzina. Il RNG viene iniettato nella rete di pipeline di Delta Gas e può essere utilizzato come carburante per il trasporto, per applicazioni industriali, nella produzione di energia rinnovabile e per la riduzione dell'impronta di carbonio. Il progetto è stato completato in anticipo rispetto ai tempi previsti, nonostante le sfide del settore.
Vision RNG ha comenzado operaciones comerciales en su nueva instalación de Gas Natural Renovable (RNG) en el vertedero de Laurel Ridge en Lily, Kentucky, en colaboración con Waste Connections y Delta Gas. La instalación procesa alrededor de 2,250 pies cúbicos estándar de gas de vertedero por minuto, produciendo aproximadamente 450,000 MMBtu de RNG anualmente, lo que equivale a 3.6 millones de galones de gasolina. El RNG se inyecta en la red de tuberías de Delta Gas y puede ser utilizado como combustible para transporte, aplicaciones industriales, producción de energía renovable y reducción de la huella de carbono. El proyecto se completó antes de lo previsto a pesar de los desafíos en la industria.
Vision RNG는 Waste Connections 및 Delta Gas와 협력하여 켄터키주 릴리의 Laurel Ridge 매립지에 새로운 재생 가능 천연 가스(RNG) 시설의 상업 운영을 시작했습니다. 이 시설은 매립가스를 분당 약 2,250 입방 피트 처리하며, 연간 약 450,000 MMBtu의 RNG를 생산하고, 이는 360만 갤런의 휘발유에 해당합니다. RNG는 Delta Gas의 파이프라인 네트워크에 주입되며, 운송 연료, 산업 응용 프로그램, 재생 에너지 생산 및 탄소 발자국 감소에 사용할 수 있습니다. 이 프로젝트는 업계의 다양한 도전 과제가 있음에도 불구하고 계획보다 앞서 완료되었습니다.
Vision RNG a commencé ses opérations commerciales dans sa nouvelle installation de Gaz Naturel Renouvelable (RNG) à la décharge de Laurel Ridge à Lily, Kentucky, en partenariat avec Waste Connections et Delta Gas. L'installation traite environ 2 250 pieds cubes standards de gaz de décharge par minute, produisant environ 450 000 MMBtu de RNG par an, ce qui équivaut à 3,6 millions de gallons d'essence. Le RNG est injecté dans le réseau de pipelines de Delta Gas et peut être utilisé comme carburant pour le transport, pour des applications industrielles, pour la production d'énergie renouvelable et pour réduire l'empreinte carbone. Le projet a été achevé en avance malgré les défis du secteur.
Vision RNG hat den kommerziellen Betrieb ihrer neuen Erneuerbaren Erdgas (RNG) Anlage auf der Deponie Laurel Ridge in Lily, Kentucky, in Partnerschaft mit Waste Connections und Delta Gas aufgenommen. Die Anlage verarbeitet etwa 2.250 Standardkubikfuß Deponiegas pro Minute und produziert jährlich etwa 450.000 MMBtu RNG, was 3,6 Millionen Gallonen Benzin entspricht. Das RNG wird in das Pipelinesystem von Delta Gas eingespeist und kann als Kraftstoff für den Transport, für industrielle Anwendungen, zur Erzeugung erneuerbarer Energie und zur Reduzierung des Kohlenstoff-Fußabdrucks genutzt werden. Das Projekt wurde trotz branchenweiter Herausforderungen vor dem Zeitplan abgeschlossen.
- Facility completed ahead of schedule despite industry challenges
- Production capacity of 450,000 MMBtu of RNG annually
- Multiple revenue streams through diverse RNG applications (transportation, industrial, energy)

Insights
Laurel Ridge Landfill in
“This is an exciting milestone for Vision RNG and our partners,” said Bill Johnson, CEO of Vision RNG. “Bringing our first project with Waste Connections online ahead of schedule is a significant achievement, especially given the industry-wide challenges and delays affecting many projects.”
The facility at the Laurel Ridge Landfill processes approximately 2,250 standard cubic feet per minute of landfill gas (LFG), producing an estimated 450,000 MMBtu of RNG annually—the energy equivalent of 3.6 million gallons of gasoline. The RNG generated can be utilized in several beneficial ways, including:
- Transportation Fuel: Suitable for compressed natural gas (CNG)-powered vehicles and other sustainable fuel applications.
- Industrial Use: A substitute for traditional natural gas in industrial and commercial settings.
- Renewable Energy Production: Enables customers to generate electricity from a sustainable source.
- Carbon Footprint Reduction: Assists companies in achieving sustainability goals by reducing their greenhouse gas emissions.
The Laurel Ridge RNG facility exemplifies the collaboration between Vision RNG, Waste Connections, and Delta Gas, reflecting a shared commitment to advancing renewable energy to benefit the environment.
John Brown, the President of Delta Natural Gas, said, “We have enjoyed partnering with Vision RNG on this important project. While our parent company, Peoples Natural Gas in
