Headquartered in Burlington, Ontario (ON), Anaergia has signed a contract to supply its organic waste treatment solutions, including its bioLNG technology, to Societa’ Agricola Agriferr ss di Zagni Matteo & C (Agriferr), an agricultural industry company based in Rivarolo del Re Ed Uniti, Cremona, Italy.
Anaergia will build Agriferr’s new plant using a range of proprietary systems, including its “Triton” digester, biogas upgrading system, and an on-site fueling station for end users.
This is an important milestone for both Anaergia and Agriferr. This underscores Anaergia’s strong market position in Italy while it provides Agriferr with the world’s best-integrated approach for producing value from agricultural wastes, said Alessandro Massone, Anaergia’s President of Sales for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
Under the terms of this agreement, Anaergia is to build and then operate this plant for a period of four years. This facility, which is expected to produce about 2 000 tonnes of bioLNG annually, is slated to begin operations by the end of 2022.
Italy is a European leader in the adoption of renewable energy and an increasingly important market for Anaergia. Furthermore, this project is especially notable because it marks Anaergia’s first sale of a system that will produce renewable LNG at a time when there is fast-growing demand across Europe for this vital commodity. We expect to see follow-up demand for this integrated solution in Italy as well as in a range of other European countries, commented Andrew Benedek, Chairman, and CEO of Anaergia.
