Waga Energy reported 19.2 million in consolidated revenue for 2022. RNG sales and gas upgrading service sales to landfill operators accounted for 79% of total revenue, with RNG production equipment sales accounting for 19%.

In 2022, the installed base of WAGABOX® units injected 216 GWh of RNG into the gas grid in France49% more than the previous year. The increase was due to the commissioning of new RNG production units, including one that can produce five times more RNG than earlier units, proving that Waga Energys WAGABOX® technology can support volume RNG production. The successful deployment of very-large-capacity RNG production units marks a decisive step toward Waga Energys development on international markets like America.

Waga Energys installed base continued to perform at a high level in 2022, with total overall uptime greater than 95%.

During 2022 Waga Energy signed contracts to build seven new WAGABOX® units, five in France and two in Canada. At December 31, 2022, Waga Energy operated fourteen units in France, for an installed base of 415 GWh/year, and had started construction on fifteen units, for an additional installed base of 565 GWh/year. These 29 units will represent a total capacity of nearly 1 TWh/year.

 

Mathieu Lefebvre, CEO of Waga Energy, said:

Our 2022 results are evidence of the very high value Waga Energys technology delivers. Our solution, unlike anything else on the market, is particularly relevant in an energy crisis with no apparent end in sight. WAGABOX® RNG production units transform millions of cubic meters of greenhouse gases emitted by waste in landfills into a renewable substitute for environmentally-harmful fossil-based natural gas. And once again, our technology has proven itself to be extremely reliable, with average uptime of more than 95%. Landfill operators around the world have shown interest in our solution. However, for the time being, we have decided to remain focused on North America, where we opened a subsidiary just over three years ago. Our local staff has already won several contracts and we will start producing RNG in Canada and the United States later this year. The huge landfill gas potential in North America means that we will have to ramp up capital expenditures to harness it. However, the return on investment will be greater. Given this buoyant market, we can confirm our objective of increasing our installed base to reach RNG production of 4 TWh/year by end-2026.
