About Waga Energy
Waga Energy was established to further our founders' commitments to preserving the common good and acting collectively to ensure a sustainable future.
Committed to the fight against global warming and to a sustainable energy transition, Waga Energy has developed a breakthrough technology to recover landfill gas into biomethane, also called Renewable Natural Gas (RNG). Our WAGABOX landfill gas upgrading units deliver high-quality biomethane, regardless of the quality of the raw biogas. The biomethane produced by the WAGABOX can be injected directly into the gas grid or used as fuel for vehicles.
Waga Energy builds, owns, operates, and maintains the WAGABOX units under long-term contracts with landfill owners, and biomethane sales revenue is shared.
Already in operation at dozens of landfill sites worldwide, this revolutionary landfill gas purification solution has been producing clean, local renewable energy since 2015. Waga Energy is committed to a mission of driving a sustainable energy transition by making RNG accessible to all.
Guided by the values of Boldness, Mastery, and Cooperation, Waga Energy employees in Europe, North America, and other locations are united by a common purpose: maintaining a livable planet for future generations.
