LONG BEACH, CA – SCS Engineers is excited to announce the appointment of Vice President Jeffrey J. Grill as the new Business Unit Director of SCS Energy. SCS Directors are responsible for geographic business areas or, in this case, a specialty practice in renewable energy under the brand SCS Energy.

Jeff joined SCS Energy in 2019, leading the process engineering team responsible for the design of biogas to renewable natural gas & energy facilities. He has over 20 years of experience in energy and renewable natural gas (RNG) project development. His background is in chemical process engineering and a wide array of engineering and management services, from conceptual to detailed design and implementation. His core values are quality, consistency, and engineering excellence.

Jeff earned multiple B.S. degrees in Chemical Engineering and Materials Engineering at the University of Connecticut. He has professional affiliations and sits on committees with the Renewable Natural Gas Coalition and the American Biogas Council.

During his career, he has built an execution portfolio of 19 patents and applications and designed over 50 Renewable Natural Gas processing plants with a combined designed production capacity equivalent to 16% of California’s 2021 residential natural gas consumption. That is equivalent to almost one and a half percent of the U.S. residential natural gas consumption, equating to a reduction of over 4.1 million tons of CO2 GHG emissions or 2.1 million tons of coal burned annually. The capacity of the landfill gas to pipeline quality RNG projects that Jeff has designed or supervised totals over 335 MMCFD for landfill gas to RNG and over 34 MMCFD for dairy digester and municipal WWTP gas to RNG.

His work at SCS Energy helps many clients and communities, especially those considering landfill gas to RNG to lower carbon footprints and create renewable energy or renewable fuels. Built on one of the U.S.’s longest and most successful biogas practices in North America, SCS Energy designs, constructs, and operates more landfill gas and digester gas to energy facilities than any other engineering firm in the nation. Its biogas and biomass experts provide turn-key services for RNG plants using byproducts from dairy, swine, or poultry farms into carbon-negative renewable energy.

“Jeff’s colleagues and clients are excited to see him take leadership of SCS Energy from Bob Viers, who will now serve in a leadership advisory role. SCS clients attribute their high-quality results to SCS Energy’s industry-leading expertise in biogas gas utilization, combined with the firm’s wealth of knowledge in solid waste management and regulatory compliance,” stated SCS CEO Doug Doerr.

“Our team is a powerhouse of exceptional talent, filled with professionals whose dedication, passion, and pursuit of excellence leave me in awe. Their unwavering commitment to one another and our collective success is inspiring and humbling. I am grateful for the opportunity to work alongside them and deeply appreciate the legacy of Jeff Pierce and Bob Viers,” stated Jeffrey Grill.
