US Patent 12,455,047 B2 · Awarded 11-2025

The design New Energy™ patented and is already deploying.

GreenER™ Technology is a ground-up rethink of peak-shaving LNG storage — engineered as cryogenic LNG bullet tanks and flat bottom tanks for utility, LDC, marine LNG bunkering, data center, virtual pipeline, and small-scale LNG applications, with a tank and pressure-build system that's simpler, safer, and future-ready for CNG, hydrogen (H₂), propane, nitrogen, methanol, e-Methane (e-NG), and other cryogenic gas and liquid molecule handling — without retrofit. Designs align with 49 CFR 193 and API 620; cryogenic and LNG pumps follow API 610.

PER™ — Pipeline Energy Recovery

Recovers waste pressure and heat from existing natural gas pipelines and turbines — turning what's normally vented into electrical or process power. When paired with the GreenER™ system, PER™ can reduce electrolyzer power input costs "to as low as $0" on integrated H₂ projects (Power Magazine, 4-27-2021).

e-Methane (e-NG) Roadmap

Same pad. Same design.

The GreenER™ tank is engineered for additive deployment of most cryogenic molecules, including e-Methane (e-NG), hydrogen, nitrogen, and propane — alongside LNG, without retrofit. One footprint, multiple product paths, phased on demand.

Licensing & Deployment
GreenER™ Technology is available for license to EPC contractors, system fabricators, and on-site builders.

Chart strategic partner: Chart Industries — a $6 billion strategic partner — is already under license; the Greenville Utilities tanks were fabricated by Chart. Chart is one of several, and a growing number of, GreenER™ Technology license partners that can either fabricate or build, so New Energy Development Company LLC (New Energy™) is not exclusively tied to any single partner. ("Fab" = in a factory; "build" = on-site, for the larger tanks.)

4 Groundbreaking Improvements

Each one results in
lower installed cost & complexity.

Under U.S. Patent 12,455,047 B2, the GreenER™ LNG Storage & Pressurization System uses a full-containment, no-tank-bottom-penetration design with a simple pressure build system that provides motive force for LNG dispensing — with no pumps. Anyone can now deploy this proven technology and save money, space, and deployment schedule — and reduce project risk.

01

Modular & Pre-Engineered

Faster, simpler deployment with phased scalability.

For EPCs: a cookie-cut, pre-engineered package that saves labor hours and lets you offer LNG storage as a standard line item. For utility, marine, power and data center deployments: a strong starting point that we tailor as a one-off application of the patented technology to each site.

02

Eliminates Most Civil Work

Less impoundment. Smaller pad. Lower installed cost.

Full-containment, no-bottom-penetration design eliminates most impoundment and major civil scope, materially reducing site complexity, site size, and total installed cost.

03

Safer · Full Containment

Lower permitting risk. Faster regulatory approvals.

Safer, full-containment storage design lowers permitting risk, accelerates regulatory approvals, and improves project certainty for the rate-case timeline you actually have.

04

Simplified Pressure-Driven LNG

No extraction pumps. Less capital. Lower lifetime O&M.

Simplified, pressure-driven LNG dispensing — no extraction pumps. Reduces capital deployed and delivers structurally lower O&M over the asset life.
