Renewable Operations Company, LLC (ROC) is a leader in the operations and maintenance of Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) projects and facilities. We partner with dairy farms across the Northeast and Midwest to provide the strategy, skill, and manpower required for sustainable and safe RNG production. The ROC team has proven success, having developed 10 fully operational dairy RNG projects to date; with many more in various stages of development. From concept to completion, our employees are equipped to support the unique infrastructure of today’s EPA and CALCFS-compliant energy solutions.

Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) systems are co-located on existing American dairy farms. Manure from these farms is continually processed to produce raw biogas. The biogas is refined into RNG, reducing the carbon emissions of methane generated from manure emissions by at least 90%.
