Retail Supplier Affiliate Partners For RNG, Back-up Power For Microsoft Data Center
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by VertexOne, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
Enchanted Rock, and U.S. Energy, which is described as a, "vertically integrated energy solutions provider proficient in refined products, alternative fuels and environmental credits," announced a partnership to procure renewable natural gas (RNG) for Microsoft's new data center in San Jose during grid outages and when California's Base Interruptible Power (BIP) is activated.
"The data center will use Enchanted Rock's electrical resiliency-as-a-service and ultra-low-emission generators to avoid disruptions to their operations," the companies said
U.S. Energy will deliver RNG sourced from diverted food waste that would have otherwise ended up in landfills. The RNG will be injected upstream in the pipeline to match natural gas usage at the site and reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions
"The agreement also allows for flexibility in the amount of RNG supplied, ensuring the data center is always able to meet its high standards for emissions reduction," the companies said
Procurement of the RNG is scheduled to begin in early 2026.
