OPAL Fuels Inc. (NASDAQ: OPAL) and GFL Environmental Inc. (NYSE: GFL) announced the advancement of construction for two renewable natural gas facilities at landfills in Alabama and Georgia, according to a press release statement.

The projects are located at the Stones Throw Landfill in Tallapoosa County, Alabama and the Grady Road Landfill in Polk County, Georgia. The facilities represent nearly 2 million MMBTU of plant design capacity and are owned equally by both companies at 50 percent each.

The new RNG facilities are expected to add approximately 15 million gasoline gallon equivalents of RNG supply capacity. OPAL Fuels will market and distribute the full output from the facilities through its CNG/RNG dispensing network.

The facilities are designed to supply fuel for approximately 800 Class 8 heavy-duty tractors. The projects will capture methane from organic material decomposition at both landfills and convert it into RNG.

"The construction of these two facilities underscore OPAL Fuels' momentum in advancing our growth objectives with value accretive projects," said Jonathan Maurer, Co-Chief Executive Officer of OPAL Fuels.

Patrick Dovigi, GFL's Founder and CEO, stated, "We are excited to continue building on our investments in RNG facilities at our landfills. These projects support the achievement of GFL's GHG reduction goals including fueling our own CNG fleet from landfill gas produced at our landfills."

OPAL Fuels operates as a producer and distributor of renewable natural gas and compressed natural gas. GFL Environmental is described as the fourth largest diversified environmental services company in North America with more than 15,000 employees.
