Future of RNG North America 2026

Date: 8th April 2026 - 9th April 2026 Location: Houston - Texas - USA

Future of Renewable Natural Gas North America 2026 is for producers and project owners who already understand the market and are now focused on one priority: how to create lasting value in a more mature, selective environment. The event brings together plant owners, developers, utilities, investors, traders and solution providers to explore the next phase of growth for renewable natural gas in North America.

The programme is built around the opportunities producers see as most important right now. Discussions will look at opening new demand channels beyond transportation fuel, strengthening commercial optionality, improving plant performance, expanding feedstock pathways, and identifying design and optimisation decisions that lift asset value over time. Rather than revisiting basic market explanations, the conference concentrates on practical options, peer experience and examples of what is working on the ground.

To anchor these themes, several leading producers and project developers are already confirmed to share their perspectives, including Jeff Spearin, Chief Commercial Officer at LF Bioenergy, Mark Riley, Senior Vice President at Purpose Energy, and Alex Barrow, Vice President of Project Development at Redtail Renewables. Their experience with operating assets, circular waste partnerships and landfill projects will help frame how operators can capture value today while keeping future routes into hydrogen, industrial energy and sustainable aviation fuels open.

These production focused insights are complemented by contributions across contracting, finance, policy, data and infrastructure. Senior legal, financial and market experts will examine how evolving credit structures, contracting trends, certification requirements and interconnection standards are shaping project economics and investor expectations, with a clear emphasis on what this means in practice for plant owners and developers.

Throughout two days of sessions and networking, the event will give you the chance to benchmark with peers, test your current strategy and explore new ideas for strengthening the performance, resilience and commercial potential of your renewable natural gas portfolio.
