Fast facts
- bp’s retail presence in Pennsylvania includes more than 180 retail locations.
Renewable natural gas (RNG) is a type of biogas generated by decomposing organic material at landfill sites, anaerobic digesters and other waste facilities – and demand for it is quickly growing. bp is the largest RNG producer in the US, after acquiring Houston-based Archaea Energy in late 2022.
Archaea’s Assai plant in Lackawanna County is the largest RNG plant in the world, and exceeded its 2023 RNG production goal of 4 million MMBtus. The plant and facilities that support the plant in Pennsylvania employ 23 full-time employees.
We are in the planning stages to drill a carbon capture and sequestration appraisal well near Assai, to determine if carbon dioxide sequestration could be feasible at this site.
