This development represents an expansion of Anaergia’s involvement, previously disclosed on September 3, 2024, when a Letter of Award for this Facility was announced. The increase in Anaergia’s projected revenues from the amount disclosed at that time reflects both the expanded scope and the increased project size.

The Facility aims to convert approximately 54,000 tons per year of organic waste, including waste from slaughterhouses and undigested sludge from local sewage treatment plants, into about two (2) megawatts of renewable energy. The biogas produced will be used to power a combined heat and power (CHP) system, providing electricity and heat to support various operations, including digestion, pasteurization, evaporation, and digestate drying. Additionally, the wastewater generated will be treated and recycled on-site, adhering to strict discharge regulations, while significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting waste recycling across Jeju Island.
