"We Grew Up Here." We say that often because we've welcomed families and businesses to the Pacific Northwest since 1859. Our priority: helping them create warm, safe, productive places to live and work.
While we work to fuel the Pacific Northwest with natural gas every day, we also innovate new, sustainable ways to meet the demands of the region's growing population. NW Natural is currently involved in renewable natural gas projects.
Renewable natural gas is produced from organic materials like food, agricultural and forestry waste, landfills and wastewater. With recent advancements in technology, the gases from those waste streams can be cleaned up and added into our pipeline network to serve homes and businesses. This can turn the problem of waste into a powerful climate solution using our pipeline network already in place.
