Pittsburgh International Airport and CNX Resources Corp., a gas development, production, midstream, and technology company, have entered the next phase of their partnership to reduce carbon emissions.
CNX developed a technology that converts on-site dry natural gas into liquefied natural gas (LNG), compressed natural gas (CNG), and electricity for various uses. The process will reduce local and operating costs at the airport.
The partners also plan to create a sustainable fuel hub at the airport for airlines, transit, cargo, fleet, military, and other energy-intensive business purposes.
In addition, CNX will develop the Utica shale on airport grounds. Dry gas from the Utica shale can be converted easily into LNG and CNG alternative fuels and hydrogen.
“We feel that natural gas and derivative products provide a path for the transportation industry both to reduce carbon emissions in the short-term while working toward a goal of net-zero in the long-term as hydrogen and other potential solutions mature,” Christina Cassotis, Pittsburgh International Airport CEO, said. “We believe this strategy can have a global impact.”
In 2014, CNX began natural gas development-related activities at the airport. In 2016, it brought its Marcellus shale wells into production, with the airport sharing the resulting revenue.
