Kelowna LNG

FortisBC is proposing an LNG (Liquid Natural Gas) storage facility in the midst of Kelowna, trucking it from the west coast.  Most residents are not aware.  Learn more and read the opposition letter from the Kelowna Climate Coalition.

​

Moving from new gas infrastructure and funding renewable energy projects with battery storage is where FortisBC should be investing funds.

RNG Myths

“RNG” is a marketing term coined in North America to describe methane gas that is produced from biological waste (bio-waste). Outside North America this gas is known more accurately as “biomethane”.

RNG sounds great. It captures methane from organic emissions that would be released into the atmosphere. Sadly, it is no cleaner or more renewable than "natural" gas obtained from fracking processes.
