A project that is close to our hearts: gas from renewable source (GRS)
GRS is gas from renewable source produced from organic waste (biomass) from farms, forests, landfill sites and water treatment plants. The gas is captured, cleaned and injected into the natural gas system to be used for the same applications as conventional natural gas: heating, hot water, drying, cooking food, barbecuing, the fireplace, etc. Green hydrogen is also considered a gas from renewable source.

The advantages of GRS?
Entirely renewable
Limits greenhouse gas emissions because it is not fossilized
Can be produced locally
Recovers methane emissions from the landfilling of organic waste
Take part in our energy transition
You can now help improve the environment by signing up for the GRS rate. By agreeing to take part of your gas at the GRS rate, you encourage the GRS initiative in Quebec and make a tangible contribution to reducing GHG and methane emissions in the province.
Flexible! Choose your percentage: 1%, 5%, 10% or 100%
No need to change your equipment! Very simply, this energy source is transported and used the same way as natural gas, but it’s green.
