Waga Energy, a global leader in producing RNG from waste

 

Waga Energy has been a leader in the landfill gas to RNG industry since its establishment in 2015. We play a key role in the energy transition and the fight against climate change by replacing fossil natural gas with renewable natural gas.

Our success depends on long-term, trusted partnerships and fundamental values shared by leading players in the waste management and energy sectors.

These partnerships are much more than collaborations. They are long-term commitments with local authorities or international leaders in waste management, based on the desire to jointly build a cleaner, more sustainable energy future.

We believe that renewable natural gas is a key pillar of the energy transition. The power of these partnerships creates a better world by transforming waste into a resource, considerably reducing greenhouse-gas emissions, and offering a renewable alternative to fossil fuels.

360° innovation for continuous, global improvement

The innovative WAGABOX® technology, developed and patented by Waga Energy, removes technological and industrial obstacles to converting biogas derived from landfills into renewable natural gas. Our innovative solution offers optimum energy generation, economic benefits, and environmental compliance, and can be adapted to both small and large landfills.

The RNG produced by the WAGABOX® unit is then injected directly into the existing natural gas distribution pipeline, replacing fossil natural gas, and considerably reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Waga Energy considers the safety and quality of its processes to be paramount. The company develops its business on the basis of innovation and continuous improvement, as part of a process of achieving ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISCC EU certifications, which were obtained in 2023.

Our engineers continuously optimize the production of RNG and the productivity of our solution by monitoring hundreds of performance sensors on fully automated and remotely controlled WAGABOX® units in operation.

Our process of continuous innovation improves the efficiency of our technology, which fuels our ambition to produce RNG at prices comparable to natural gas all over the world in order to accelerate the energy transition.
