Prevention basics
Safety first: prevention is as easy as following your appliances' installation, usage and maintenance guidelines.
Carbon monoxide: what you need to know
Natural gas is non-toxic. Carbon monoxide emanations, however, can result from poor combustion in poorly maintained appliances. Make sure your appliances are properly maintained.
Fraudulent calls
Please note that we never contact our customers to ask for their credit card number. If you receive such a call, hang up and inform your local police force.

Case studies
Several customers have agreed to share their experience with Énergir. See case studies to explore the many benefits of natural gas for Quebec businesses.
Featured case study - Rose Drummond
Heating greenhouses is no mean feat and costs can quickly skyrocket. In 2012 the price of natural gas became more attractive and commercial programs encouraged the purchase of new equipment. It was time to try something new.
How is renewable natural gas produced?
Organic waste
Organic waste is collected and taken to a biomethanation plant.
Biomethanation
Waste is put into biodigesters. Microbes and other bacteria then break down the organic waste into renewable natural gas (RNG)
Renewable natural gas
RNG is injected into the gas network. This clean energy is ready to use.

Personalize your consumption according to your needs
Adding renewable natural gas to your consumption profile is a simple and flexible process:
- You may change or modify your Renewable Natural Gas consumption profile each 1st of the month with a minimum prior notice.
- You won’t need new appliances.
* Based on the heating consumption for a small business building or a 10-unit building charged at current rates.
Society for Arts and Technology
In an effort to promote the use of renewable energy and reduce its carbon footprint, the Society for Arts and Technology has choose to replace 20% of its natural gas consumption with renewable natural gas within two years.

Our goals for the future
10% of renewable natural gas in our network by 2030 = a reduction of 1 million tons of GHG
that’s equal to 250,000 fewer cars on the road
Questions?
We've got answers.
RNG and conventional natural gas flow through the same network, so they intermingle with each other.
When you purchase any amount of RNG, that volume is guaranteed to be injected into the network, replacing a proportional amount of conventional natural gas.
The volume you purchase is listed on the itemized invoice detailing your total consumption of natural gas.
The Bureau de normalisation du Québec (BNQ) had verified the Énergir RNG supply and inventory

For more details on the traceability of renewable natural gas, consult this newsletter.
Through a process of biomethanation, organic matter (food waste, slurry, manure, wastewater, etc.) is transformed into biogas, which once purified becomes renewable natural gas.
This product reduces greenhouse gas emissions in two ways: first, by replacing fossil energy with renewable energy, and second, by avoiding methane emissions associated with the disposal of organic waste at landfill sites.
Renewable natural gas is recognized by Natural Resources Canada as a renewable energy and clean fuel that will help Canada achieve its new net-zero emission targets. In addition, according to the Government of Québec’s Regulation respecting mandatory reporting of certain emissions of contaminants into the atmosphere, greenhouse gas emissions for RNG are very low and comparable to hydroelectricity emissions (0.30 kg CO2-eq/GJ for RNG vs. 0.44 kg CO2-eq/GJ for hydro).
The cost gap between renewable natural gas (RNG) and traditional natural gas is based on different production processes and costs, and on the availability of inventories in a context of high demand for renewable energy.
As is the case with traditional natural gas, Énergir does not profit from the sale of the RNG molecule, and our teams make every effort to ensure it is supplied at the lowest cost to all our customers.
No. You don't need to buy or modify any equipment, because RNG and natural gas are interchangeable.
RNG meets our quality standards and can be used for the same purposes as natural gas.
You may change or modify your Renewable Natural Gas consumption profile each 1st of the month with a minimum prior notice. In the next few weeks, it will become possible to do so by logging into your Customer Space .
In the meantime, you must send this notice by email to [email protected] specifying the desired date for the change in consumption, the revised consumption percentage, your account number and the consumer address on your account.
Énergir is following suit and has replaced the traditional natural gas used in nine of its business offices as well as three trucks in its fleet with RNG.
