Wedoany.com Report-Aug. 7, On August 6, 2025, Anaergia Inc. announced that its subsidiary, Anaergia S.r.l., signed a contract with an entity owned by QGM S.á.r.l., a partnership between Quercus Real Assets and Elionia, to develop a biomethane production facility in Ostellato, northern Italy. This marks the third collaboration between Anaergia and QGM, following similar projects announced on March 31, 2025, in Copparo and Derovere.

The Ostellato plant will utilize Anaergia’s advanced anaerobic digestion technology to convert approximately 47,000 tons of agricultural biomass and by-products annually into over 4 million cubic meters of renewable biomethane. This output will be supplied to Italy’s gas pipeline grid, supporting the country’s sustainability and decarbonization efforts. The facility, with a contract value exceeding C$22 million, is expected to be operational by mid-2026.

Diego Biasi, Co-Founder and CEO of Quercus, stated: “This third facility is part of a broader, self-developed, portfolio that QGM has planned to invest in during the next three-to-five years in Italy as part of our organization’s sustainability goals and with a view to become a player of reference in the biomethane industry.” This reflects QGM’s commitment to expanding renewable energy infrastructure in Italy.

Danilo Fumarola, CEO and Founder of Elionia, added: “By adding this third facility to the others previously announced by QGM and Anaergia, we are fully on track to pursue our strategy to build a leading biomethane portfolio in Italy over the next years.” The partnership aims to position QGM as a key contributor to Italy’s biomethane sector.

Assaf Onn, CEO of Anaergia, emphasized the collaboration’s significance: “This project highlights the constructive relationship between the parties, being the third facility we will build together, and serving as an example of Anaergia’s commitment to developing long-term, repeat partnerships.” The project underscores Anaergia’s role in advancing sustainable energy solutions through innovative technology.

The Ostellato facility will promote the responsible use of agricultural resources, reducing waste while producing clean energy. By integrating renewable biomethane into Italy’s energy grid, the project supports Europe’s broader environmental goals, including decarbonization and sustainable resource management. This initiative exemplifies how collaborative efforts can drive progress in the renewable energy sector, fostering economic and environmental benefits for the region.
