HOUSTON, Jan. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Surge Energy US Holdings Company ("Surge Energy" or the "Company") announces it has commissioned the Phoenix electrical substation, the Company's second electrical substation.

The company's first electrical substation, the Dragon substation was commissioned in January 2020. This reduced the need for over forty well-site generators which significantly reduced both costs and GHG emissions. The Company estimates the removal of generators has resulted in a reduction of approximately 150,000 metric tons of CO₂ emissions per year.

In December, the Phoenix substation was connected to the company's power-line infrastructure which now includes over 150 miles of powerlines. The Phoenix substation will support recently acquired acreage in 2021 and will have similar environmental and cost-reduction benefits as the Dragon substation.

"Surge is proud to announce the start-up of Surge's second electrical substation," stated Chief Executive Officer Linhua Guan. "We believe this is another example of Surge's commitment to sustainability as this investment in electrification of our field reduces both emissions and costs."
