New Energy Ventures

Solving complex energy challenges with speed, reliability and lower carbon—at scale 

We work closely with internal experts, external partners and customers to assess and implement projects that deliver both environmental and financial benefits. 

Who We Are 

Williams’ New Energy Ventures (NEV) is a business development group focused on commercializing innovative technologies, markets and business models. NEV collaborates across Williams to evaluate and implement projects that expand our clean energy business and support emissions reductions. 

Our Guiding Principles 

• Achieve carbon reductions for ourselves, our customers and partners. 

• Create economic value with actionable investments. 

• Leverage midstream competencies and infrastructure for competitive advantage. 

• Provide scalable options that can grow with demand. 

Outcomes We Deliver 

• Reliability & speed: Dispatchable energy and integrated infrastructure to meet the “need for speed” in high‑growth markets. 

• Cleaner energy now: Gas enables renewables growth and system stability. 

• Affordability at scale: U.S. natural gas improves energy security while reducing total delivered cost. 

What We Do (Our Focus Areas) 

Power Innovation — Turnkey, behind‑the‑meter power solutions for large loads (e.g., data centers), leveraging our national pipeline footprint, gas supply and management expertise, and partnerships across Williams to deliver speed to market for clean, reliable power. 

Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) — Capture methane from landfills, wastewater, livestock and food waste; interconnect to our systems and deliver lower‑carbon gas. Our systems are currently interconnected with multiple RNG facilities across the U.S. 

NextGen Gas — End‑to‑end certified low‑emissions natural gas that increases trust and transparency in carbon intensity from wellhead to end user. Carbon‑offset natural gas available as a bundled product. 

Energy Efficiency — Reduce methane emissions with new monitoring technologies, enhanced LDAR, work‑practice improvements and equipment upgrades (e.g., horsepower replacements, valve‑actuator efficiency). 

Solar + Storage — Offset electricity at select facilities with behind‑the‑meter solar and batteries; build larger solar + storage on Williams land to serve third‑party demand (e.g., Lakeland, Florida). 

CCUS — Develop carbon capture, utilization and storage solutions—including hub concepts—to gather, transport and permanently sequester CO₂, leveraging Williams’ project execution and safe operations. 

Why Williams 

• Scale & reach: National pipeline network and integrated capabilities across gas marketing, gathering, processing and transmission. 

• Execution: Proven ability to deliver complex infrastructure across diverse regulatory environments. 

• Trust & transparency: Industry‑recognized sustainability leadership and third‑party‑assured reporting. 

• One team: NEV partners with your teams from concept through operations to de‑risk schedules and outcomes.
