New chapter for South Fork Dairy with RNG
facility resuming development
Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE) announced it has broken
ground on a renewable natural gas (RNG) production facility at
South Fork Dairy in Dimmitt, TX. Home to a 16,000-cow herd, the
facility will produce RNG, an ultra-clean transportation fuel that
is made from organic waste and receives a negative carbon-intensity
score.

The construction of the digesters and processing plant is
forecasted to cost approximately $85 million and is expected to be
completed in 2025. The South Fork Dairy facility is set to be one
of the biggest RNG production developments in the country with an
anticipated 2.6 million gallons of RNG to be produced annually once
completed. All the RNG fuel produced at the site will make its way
into Clean Energy’s nationwide network of stations.
“We are excited to begin construction on the South Fork Texas
project. Building anaerobic digesters at a large dairy like South
Fork will help the dairy owner, Frank Brand, and his team collect
and monetize sizeable amounts of manure waste while also benefiting
from the environmental credits an RNG facility brings. We are proud
to call Frank, who is one of the most well-respected people in the
dairy industry, our partner,” said Clay Corbus senior vice
president of renewables at Clean Energy.
“The project not only helps us convert our waste into a clean,
useable sustainable fuel, but it also helps us with managing manure
which for a dairy of our size is quite a feat. We do this while
simultaneously reducing our environmental footprint – it’s a
direction I hope many other dairies will look to pursuing,” said
Frand Brand, owner of South Fork Dairy.
Agriculture accounts for nearly 10 percent of U.S. greenhouse
gas (GHG) emissions, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency. Capturing methane from farm waste can lower these
emissions. RNG is a transportation fuel made entirely from organic
waste and drastically reduces GHG emissions by an average of 300%
versus diesel. It is so clean that the California Air Resources
Board gives RNG from dairy farms an average carbon-intensity score
of -330, which is substantially lower than electric vehicles
charging with electricity on today’s grid.

the cleanest fuel for the transportation market. Our mission is to
decarbonize transportation through the development and delivery of
renewable natural gas (RNG), a sustainable fuel derived by
capturing methane from organic waste. Clean Energy allows thousands
of vehicles, from airport shuttles to city buses to waste and
heavy-duty trucks, to reduce their amount of climate-harming
greenhouse gas. We operate a vast network of fueling stations
across the U.S. and Canada as well as RNG production facilities at
dairy farms. Visit www.cleanenergyfuels.com and follow
