RE:Brookfield seeks partner to produce biomethane in BrazilInteresting article in that it clarifies the immaturity of the existing market/infrastructure for RNG in Brazil, despite the potential.
But one statement in particular caught my eye:
"While biomethane generally carries a slightly higher cost than natural gas, its environmental benefits make it appealing.
"Slightly higher...?" Correct me if I'm wrong, but in Canada, at least, RNG commands a substantial premium over conventional NG. Fortis, for instance, indicates a 50% premium. I sense that Brazil generally doesn't have greater potential economies of scale, so is the word 'slightly' downplaying reality?
