Comment:
In addition to the inventory of waste streams in #2 in my earlier comments, I would suggest an inventory of state government fuel consumption by type and location. Combined with an inventory of state organic waste streams, by type and location, you may find yourselves with an interesting opportunity to provide a key component of moving RNG projects forward - predictability. The state of California could be in a unique position to supply feed-stock for biogas production from its own organic waste streams, and off take commitments for gas and other clean by-products by directing that state bodies utilize RNG for vehicle fuel, or other uses like RNG-powered electricity generation and soil amendments to stabilize land post-wildfire or other soil replenishment uses. Wielding these tools in combination may let the state encourage biogas production by creating certainty of both supply and demand for prospective producers. Incentives can be built into one or both ends of the process if needed, but providing both committed supply and demand would remove a significant obstacle to attracting private capital to the biogas production arena.
