Pittsburgh-based Montauk Renewables Inc., a renewable energy company specializing in the management, recovery and conversion of biogas into renewable natural gas (RNG), recently announced its subsidiary, Tulsa LFG, broke ground on a RNG landfill gas project.
The project, located at the American Environmental Landfill (AEL) in Tulsa, Okla., has a variable inlet capacity design. The company’s existing gas rights and lease agreement with AEL was extended.
The facility will process all of the host landfill’s available inlet gas feedstock. Once completed, it is expected to have a production nameplate capacity averaging approximately 1,500 million British thermal units daily.
“Montauk is excited to announce the development of our new RNG facility in Tulsa, Okla., in continued support of AEL, one of our most prized relationships in our portfolio,” Sean McClain, Montauk Renewables CEO, said on April 10. “We believe this project is indicative of our core growth strategy, to align ourselves with exemplary host businesses, and synchronize their growth needs with our development initiatives. The strong historical and continued growth of available feedstock at this project location is a great example of how successful these partnerships can be.”
Montauk expects to invest between $25 million to $35 million, and the facility is expected to be commissioned during the first quarter of 2027.
