Vison RNG, Waste Connections enter 20-year RNG agreement at Nebraska landfill

The project will initially convert 1,200 cubic feet per minute of landfill gas into 310,000 MMBtu of RNG annually.

Vision RNG LLC, a developer and operator of landfill gas-to-renewable natural gas (RNG) facilities, has signed a 20-year agreement with L.P. Gill Inc., a subsidiary of Waste Connections Inc. 

The Jackson, Nebraska, project will initially convert 1,200 cubic feet per minute of landfill gas into 310,000 MMBtu of RNG annually, with production expected to grow over the life of the contract. The RNG will be injected into a nearby pipeline and used across the U.S. for transportation fuel and other sustainable applications.

“We are excited to further expand our partnership with Waste Connections,” says Vision RNG CEO Bill Johnson. “The addition of L.P. Gill Landfill to our growing portfolio of RNG projects is a significant step forward. By capturing and converting methane into clean RNG, we are not only reducing greenhouse gas emissions but also beneficially repurposing the gas in a sustainable manner.”

The plant is expected to be operational in 2027, further expanding Vision RNG’s portfolio of renewable energy projects.
