RNG initiatives are governed by the federal Renewable Fuel Standard, which establishes guidelines for transportation fuel blending. The mandate for cellulosic biofuels in 2023 was raised by the EPA in June from 630 million gallons to 840 million gallons. For 2024 and 2025, the obligation increases to 1.09 billion and 1.38 billion gallons, respectively.
Renewable identification numbers (RINs) are generated, and renewable natural gas (RNG) production is greatly aided by Tek-Trol meters. In the core of RNG manufacturing, Tek-Trol cone meters are essential for providing:
- Accurate Flow Measurement
- Low Pressure Drops
- Regulatory Compliance
- Data for RIN Generation
- Optimizing Greenhouse Gas Reduction
According to data gathered in September by S&P Global Commodity Insights, RNG production still contributes less than 200 MMcf/d to the Lower 48 natural gas market and is expected to expand to 1.4 Bcf/d by 2050.
Cone flow meters like as the Tek-DP 1620A are well known for their accuracy and dependability in measuring fluid flow, including steam, over a broad range of flow rates, which makes them perfect for use in industrial operations.
