Anaergia, through its subsidiary Anaergia Australia Pty Ltd, has signed a contract with RF Corval Pty Ltd to deliver proprietary technology and equipment for an advanced anaerobic digestion facility at the Goodness Grown farm production site in Tongala, Australia — marking the company's first major reference project in the Australian market, with anticipated contract revenue of around C$14 million.
The facility is being designed to process up to 120,000 tonnes of mixed agricultural and commercial feedstocks annually, generating more than 100 terajoules of gross biogas energy per year. The plant is expected to displace a significant portion of the liquid petroleum gas currently used by the adjacent greenhouse, with captured heat and CO2 recovered and supplied to the glasshouse operation to meet its on-site energy and CO2 needs.
The project has received funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) under its National Industrial Transformation Program. Anaergia will supply a range of its technologies, including its proprietary PSM Mixers and Service Box Pro equipment, with the plant expected to become operational within two years, converting organic waste into renewable biomethane.
Andrew Jackson, Head of Agricultural Real Estate at Corval, said the project reflected investor expectations around sustainability and would help position Goodness Grown as producing the most sustainably grown tomatoes in Australia.
Paul Geurtsen, Project Director of Goodness Grown, described it as the first project of its kind in Australia's food production sector and a cornerstone of the company's strategy to decarbonise production and demonstrate scalable circular-economy solutions.
Assaf Onn, CEO of Anaergia, called the contract a strategically significant flagship project for the company in the Australia and New Zealand region, marking an important step in establishing its presence and supporting growth as a technology provider in the region's expanding bioenergy sector.
