BerQ RNG develops, owns, and operates renewable natural gas (“RNG”) projects from waste sources such as agricultural waste, landfill gas and wastewater treatment gas throughout North America and sells RNG to various end users interested in a zero-carbon emission fuel source.
Our Mission is to accelerate the journey of decarbonization while transforming organic waste to renewable natural gas for a better tomorrow.
BerQ RNG contributes positively to the environment by beneficially using biogas generated from these waste sources that are otherwise being wasted. BerQ RNG has entered into an investment partnership with Lotus Infrastructure Partners to develop and acquire RNG projects in all stages, ranging from early development to operating projects.
