Reliable Natural Gas Supply for Utilities
When utilities face peak demand, planned maintenance, or unexpected outages, Certarus safely delivers the speed, flexibility, and reliability needed to keep systems online.
Certarus’ mobile compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) solutions provide temporary natural gas supply directly into your distribution network, eliminating downtime, supporting customers, and protecting critical infrastructure. Whether you need Peak Shaving support, a Pipeline Bypass during maintenance, or Supplemental Supply during expansion, Certarus is your trusted utility gas partner.
Peak Shaving and Supplemental Gas Supply
Seasonal demand spikes can strain local distribution systems. Certarus supports utilities with mobile energy distribution that injects additional CNG or LNG into the pipeline to supplement supply during high-demand periods.
With rapid deployment capabilities and 24/7 monitoring, we help ensure your network remains balanced and reliable when demand is highest.
Our virtual pipeline network allows utilities to:
- Manage peak shaving events without costly permanent infrastructure
- Stabilize pressure during extreme weather
- Maintain uninterrupted service to residential, commercial, and industrial customers
- Reduce reliance on higher-emission backup fuels
Pipeline Maintenance and Bypass Solutions
Planned maintenance, integrity testing, or system upgrades shouldn’t mean service disruption. Certarus provides temporary natural gas supply and pipeline bypass solutions that keep gas flowing safely during scheduled outages.
Our mobile CNG and LNG systems integrate seamlessly into existing infrastructure to:
- Support pipeline pigging and maintenance programs
- Maintain service continuity during tie-ins or repairs
- Protect customer relationships during planned shutdowns
- Reduce operational risk during critical work
We work alongside utility teams to plan, stage, and execute supply continuity with precision and safety at the forefront.
Emergency Response and Outage Mitigation
Unexpected outages demand immediate action. Certarus leverages over a decade of experience in rapid mobilization and emergency deployment across North America.
With centralized logistics coordination and 24/7 monitoring, we ensure safe, controlled, and dependable CNG fuel delivery, even under urgent conditions.
Our utility partners rely on us to:
- Restore service quickly following infrastructure failures
- Provide temporary natural gas supply during upstream disruptions
- Support communities during extreme weather events
- Deliver reliable gas supply until permanent systems are restored
System Expansion and Remote Service
When expanding into new service territories or supporting remote communities, building permanent pipeline infrastructure may not be immediately feasible. Certarus’ mobile CNG and LNG solutions bridge the gap.
Utilities can:
- Extend service into new developments
- Support temporary demand during construction phases
- De-risk infrastructure investments
- Provide cleaner energy access where pipeline access is limited
Our mobile energy distribution model allows utilities to grow strategically while maintaining cost control and operational flexibility.

Utility Support Services Include:
CNG batteries from Certarus offer an effective solution to ensure you have an ample and dependable gas supply whenever you need it. By integrating CNG battery storage with existing infrastructure, you can improve speed and flexibility, allowing you to reduce emissions and improve efficiencies.
By opting to use CNG for power back-up instead of diesel, you can lower greenhouse gas emissions and eliminate costs of storing liquid fuels onsite. Certarus has the largest fleet of CNG trailers in the world, offering rapid delivery of CNG with decompression on site.
Certarus offers CNG for power peak shaving to help utilities plan for demand peaks by compressing and storing gas during low demand periods. CNG offers a reliable, cost-efficient solution capable of supporting utilities during times of peak demand, whether these lasts for months or days. In addition, CNG can also help strengthen reliability, solve pressure issues, and mitigate the risk of interruptible service.
