Waga Energy to Produce RNG from Landfill Gas in Spain

Waga Energy, based in Eybens, France, has announced a new project to produce Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) from landfill gas at the Ecocentral site in Alhendín, Granada, Spain. This collaboration with FCC Medioambiente will see the upgrade of landfill gas, starting operations in 2028. The project aims to produce 273,000 MMBtu (80 GWh) of RNG per year, which could supply gas to 16,000 Spanish households.

Under a ten-year contract, Waga Energy will finance, construct, and operate the WAGABOX® unit using its patented technology. This facility will treat up to 2,400 m3/h of landfill gas, injecting the RNG into the local grid via a new six-kilometer pipeline. The project will help reduce emissions by 19,000 metric tons of CO2 annually.

This initiative marks Waga Energy's third contract in Spain, contributing to a portfolio of 59 projects committed to advancing the circular economy and energy transition.
