Anaergia to supply anaerobic digestion tech to Eni

Executive Summary

• Anaergia Inc., via its subsidiary Anaergia SRL, signed a contract with Circular Renewable Evolution SRL (CREvolution) to supply anaerobic digestion technology for a €50 million initiative at Eni’s Gela biorefinery.
• The deal includes roughly $13 million of Anaergia equipment and systems, targeting large‑scale production of hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO), sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), BioNFTA and BioLPG.
• Installation and commissioning are slated for completion by May 2027, with the Gela site serving as a global demonstration facility that could be replicated across Eni’s biorefineries and the broader HVO market.

Key Details

• Contract Value & Scope – €50 million overall initiative; approximately $13 million of Anaergia‑provided equipment and systems.
• Technology Integration – Combines Anaergia’s high‑viscosity anaerobic digestion system with a thermal treatment process to recover degumming soil residues.
• Environmental Impact – Expected to:
• Recover >80 % of degumming soil residues,
• Generate >70,000 MWh of renewable natural gas (RNG) per year,
• Significantly decarbonize energy use at the Gela refinery and cut waste‑disposal costs.
• Timeline – Installation and commissioning targeted for completion by May 2027.
• Market Context – Over 250 HVO plants worldwide; market projected to grow >35 % by 2030, positioning Anaergia, Eni and CREvolution at the forefront of scalable low‑carbon fuel production.
• Strategic Benefits –
• Strengthens Anaergia’s IP‑driven competitive moat,
• Validates a replicable circular‑economy platform aligned with global climate policy tailwinds,
• Provides a pathway for repeat project deployment across Eni’s biorefineries and the broader HVO industry.
