The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued a rule creating a mandatory
national greenhouse gas reporting (GHG) program. Regulated natural gas utilities and some
of their largest customers are required to report GHG emissions. The
EPA website
includes an online tool to help you decide if the rule applies to your company. There are
also resources to help your company understand the rule.
Information about the natural gas delivered by Minnesota Energy Resources
If your company is required to report, you may need information about natural gas
purchased from Minnesota Energy Resources. The
amount of natural gas consumed can be found on your Minnesota Energy Resources
bill or in the My Account
section of the website. As a service to customers, we provide the heating value of your
natural gas below*.
