Anaergia secures C$58m contract to expand low-carbon fuel production

Anaergia Inc. has secured a C$58 million contract with Neogenyx Fuels to deploy its anaerobic digestion technology at a major agricultural facility in the United States, in a move aimed at accelerating low-carbon fuel production and reducing emissions from agricultural waste.

The agreement will see Anaergia deliver turnkey manure handling, processing and anaerobic digestion systems capable of generating more than 4,400 standard cubic feet per minute of biogas. The biogas will then be upgraded into pipeline-quality renewable natural gas (RNG), a lower-carbon alternative to conventional fossil fuels.

The project highlights growing momentum in the carbon reduction and energy transition sectors, where RNG is increasingly being used to cut greenhouse gas emissions from transport, industry and heating. By capturing methane from agricultural waste and converting it into usable energy, such projects help prevent the release of one of the most potent greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

Neogenyx Fuels, a newly formed joint venture between Ameresco, Inc. and HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital, Inc., is focused on developing and operating advanced renewable fuel infrastructure across North America.

Anaergia said the contract is expected to contribute approximately C$58 million in revenue over the next two years, while also strengthening its long-term position in the expanding carbon reduction market.

Industry analysts continue to identify agricultural waste-to-energy projects as one of the most underdeveloped but high-potential segments of the clean energy economy, supported by tightening emissions regulations, low-carbon fuel incentives and growing corporate demand for cleaner energy sources.

Assaf Onn, Chief Executive Officer of Anaergia, said the agreement demonstrated increasing market confidence in scalable carbon-reduction technologies.

“This contract represents an important step in converting Anaergia’s technology leadership into visible, contracted revenue streams with high-quality counterparties,” he said.

Anaergia added that its integrated technology platform positions the company to benefit from rising global investment in renewable fuel and decarbonisation infrastructure, with additional opportunities being pursued across North America and Europe.
