Learn how Riverside Energy Group is revolutionizing the energy industry by pioneering more sustainable practices
Riverside Energy Group has grown from a small exploration-focused company into Michigan's leading natural gas producer through a strategy centered on acquiring and improving existing energy assets. Since its founding in 2010, the company has expanded its footprint across Michigan, Indiana, and Texas, building a large portfolio of wells and acreage while increasing operational efficiency through consolidation and scale.
Today, Riverside supplies a significant portion of Michigan's natural gas and continues to invest in the long-term viability of the Antrim Shale region. The company's approach focuses on maximizing the value of mature assets by lowering operating costs, integrating acquisitions, and extending productive field life.

At the same time, Riverside is repositioning itself for a lower-carbon future. Through its subsidiary, Riverside Carbon Solutions, the company is developing carbon capture, utilization, and storage projects alongside renewable natural gas initiatives. By leveraging existing infrastructure and geological expertise, Riverside aims to capture carbon dioxide that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere and permanently store it underground. The company also plans to support industrial emitters throughout Michigan with carbon management solutions.
Beyond environmental initiatives, Riverside emphasizes employee safety, community stewardship, and responsible resource management. Increased field engagement and stronger safety practices have contributed to measurable improvements in workplace performance.
Looking ahead, Riverside views carbon sequestration and renewable natural gas as major growth opportunities while continuing to strengthen its natural gas operations. Company leadership believes these efforts will position Riverside as both a reliable energy producer and an emerging leader in emissions reduction and clean energy development.
