OPAL Fuels Welcomes Congressman Greg Murphy to RNG Facility
OPAL Fuels welcomed Congressman Greg Murphy to its Sapphire RNG facility at the Sampson County Landfill in Roseboro, North Carolina. The visit included a tour of the facility and a meeting with OPAL Fuels Co-CEO Adam Comora to discuss the role of domestic RNG production in strengthening American energy security, supporting Eastern North Carolina's economy, and providing heavy-duty fleets with a cost-effective, lower-emissions alternative to diesel. The Sapphire RNG facility captures naturally occurring methane from the decomposition of organic waste at the Sampson County landfill and converts it into pipeline-quality RNG that powers heavy-duty fleets across the country. The plant has a nameplate design capacity of approximately 0.80 million MMBtus per year. "I enjoyed touring the OPAL Fuels facility in Roseboro and meeting with senior leadership to discuss the future of renewable energy development in Eastern North Carolina," said Murphy. "These conversations are critical as we work to support policies that encourage responsible energy development, strengthen our workforce, and expand opportunity across the region. America needs reliable energy in all forms that is safe and secure, powers our economy, and keeps our beautiful ecosystems healthy."
