About

Cowboy Clean Fuels is a Denver-headquartered climate-tech company spun out of the University of Wyoming in 2020 that commercializes a patented BiCRS+RNG process: biomass is injected into depleted coalbed methane wells in Wyoming’s Powder River Basin, where microbes convert it to renewable natural gas while CO2 is adsorbed and stored in the coal seam. Its Triangle Unit (TRECCS) Project began commercial injection in 2024, and in 2025 CCF signed a 10-year offtake agreement with Mercuria, released an ISO 14064-2 aligned BiCRS+RNG methodology with EcoEngineers, and partnered with Mangrove Systems on digital MRV.
