These tax credits were generated in connection with VRNG’s Eagle Ridge project at the Meridian Waste Eagle Ridge Landfill in Bowling Green, MO.

“Closing this sale of Investment Tax Credits is a crucial step for Vision RNG, enabling us to unlock new funding for our extensive pipeline of projects,” said Bill Johnson, Chief Executive Officer at Vision RNG. “This capital will directly support our efforts to convert landfill gas into renewable natural gas, a process that not only enhances waste management, but also contributes significantly to climate change mitigation while bringing green jobs to the communities we work in.”

The sale of these tax credits marks a significant milestone for VRNG as it continues to expand its portfolio of LFG-to-RNG projects designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions*, promote renewable fuel alternatives, and mitigate reliance on fossil fuels. RNG produced by the Eagle Ridge project will replace the equivalent of approximately 17,000 tons of CO2 or 40,000 barrels of oil consumed each year. This project is a prime example of how innovative approaches to waste management can yield substantial environmental benefits.

“Our team is dedicated to leveraging the benefits of the Inflation Reduction Act to maximize our impact,” added Kevin Johnson, Chief Financial Officer. “With this funding, we are well-positioned to meet the growing demand for renewable fuels and contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable future.”
