Betting on bedding – BP and Maryland-based CleanBay Renewables on Tuesday announced a 15-year agreement where the oil major will purchase renewable natural gas (RNG) processed from poultry litter – a mixture of manure, feathers, and bedding – and sell it as fuel in the US transportation market. Through this agreement, BP’s trading and shipping team will sell the fuel to its customers, initially in California, where there is strong demand for RNG under the state’s low-carbon fuel standard (LCFS).
