Natural gas is often assumed to be clean and dry, various contaminants can enter the system during transmission and distribution. These contaminants include solids like ferrous oxide particles (referred to as “Black Death”), liquids such as water, methanol, glycol, and compressor oils, as well as unexpected debris like welding slag or even foreign objects. Such contamination can lead to equipment malfunctions, including clogged sample probes and frozen regulators.

Natural gas will remain a key part of Canada’s energy future due to its environmental benefits, especially with the growth of Renewable Natural Gas (RNG). It’s safe, reliable, cost-effective, and more efficient than many alternatives, with appliances that experience fewer outages. Canada also has an abundant supply—enough to last about 300 years—and continues to lead in environmentally responsible production practices. Technological innovations like LNG have further strengthened the case for natural gas as a long-term energy solution.

Natural gas is more affordable, reliable, and efficient than wind energy for meeting Canada’s current energy needs. It offers up to 90% efficiency for heating compared to wind’s 45%, with lower upfront and ongoing costs. While wind power is cleaner, it’s less consistent and more dependent on weather conditions. As a result, natural gas remains the more practical and dependable option.
