HASI, a leading investor in sustainable infrastructure assets, and Burnham, a developer, owner, and operator of wastewater treatment and reuse infrastructure, today announced the closing of a structured equity investment in the Pasco Resource Recovery Center (“Pasco Center”), a wastewater treatment and reuse facility serving the City of Pasco in Washington State.
Developed, owned, and operated by Burnham, the Pasco Center provides wastewater treatment and reuse services for seven local industrial food-processing plants. The facility uses anaerobic digestion to break down organic matter in wastewater and has the capacity to recycle more than one billion gallons of water annually for agricultural irrigation.
EnviTec Biogas Advances Two French Biomethane Conversion Projects
EnviTec Biogas has commenced implementation of two biomethane projects in France, reflecting the company's two-decade presence and long-term customer partnerships in the French market.
The projects include conversion of the Biowatt biogas plant in Brittany into a biomethane upgrading facility and construction of the new Valoverte biomethane plant in south-west France.
Copeland Targets Changing RNG Market with Standardized Compressor Platform
The growing renewable natural gas market is creating a wider range of compression requirements as developers pursue food waste projects, co-digestion and centralized processing models alongside traditional landfill and dairy digester applications.
Copeland is targeting those changing requirements with its new Vilter VSGX compressor, a standardized single-screw platform designed for mid- to large-scale digester projects.
Canadian Clean Fuels Fund Invests in Generate Upcycle Digester Project
The Canadian federal government has ramped up its support for biofuels in recent years as it works to create jobs and support economic development tied to its climate regulations. In the country’s 2021 budget, it earmarked 1.5 billion Canadian dollars over five years to establish the Clean Fuels Fund, which would provide financing for projects across development stages at multiple points in the supply chain.
The London digester’s public financing comes as a four-year loan backed by Natural Resources Canada which Generate Upcycle must begin paying back once it begins generating a profit. Generate Upcycle is covering the rest of the bill for the expansion with its own funds.
PSB Industries Introduces Remote Monitoring
PSB Industries, a specialist in the design and fabrication of systems for dehydrating and purifying gases and liquids, is proud to announce its Remote Monitoring Service, giving customers direct OEM visibility, faster technical support, and a more proactive approach to maintaining uptime and system performance. The service is designed to help customers identify abnormal operating conditions earlier, reduce unplanned downtime, and improve long-term reliability while keeping all operating authority with on-site personnel.
Global Biomethane Supply Could Meet 70% of Shipping’s 2030 Decarbonisation Demand
The Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping has estimated that global biomethane production could reach 21 billion cubic metres (bcm) in a base case scenario by 2030, positioning the fuel as a potentially significant compliance pathway for the International Maritime Organization's Net-Zero Framework (IMO NZF).
AI Adoption Accelerating Across Biogas Upgrading Markets
Regulatory mandates and capital deployment are driving widespread integration of artificial intelligence across biogas upgrading operations globally, according to analysis from BCC Research. The market shift reflects combined pressure from regulatory data fidelity requirements, energy transition capital commitments and operational margin pressures facing biomethane producers.
Op-Ed: Why the US Needs to Invest in Renewable Natural Gas
The Iran war has roiled energy markets and made a strong case for boosting domestic renewable energy as a buffer against fossil fuel volatility.
With shipping through the Strait of Hormuz halted, other routes threatened, and oil and fertiliser prices surging, renewables are more attractive — though not everywhere. Electric vehicle and heat pump sales are up in Europe, but in the US and Canada, the war’s disruptions have increased fossil fuel production.
Yet, for less than the cost of the war, the US could expand its renewable energy and fertiliser production to more than it previously imported through the Strait. This is well worth doing. Carbon-intensive fossil fuels are untenable for energy security and the climate, and clean energy is by far the better investment.
Audrey Zibelman Appointed Chair of NYSERDA Board
Governor Kathy Hochul announced her appointment of Audrey Zibelman as Chair of the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) Board of Directors. Ms. Zibelman’s appointment was confirmed by the New York State Senate on June 4, 2026.
“I am pleased to appoint Audrey Zibelman, a world-renowned energy expert, as NYSERDA Board Chair, a selection that will continue the State’s strong leadership in the clean energy transition,” said Governor Hochul. “Audrey’s familiarity with New York’s energy system, its policies, and her previous contributions as chair of the New York State Public Service Commission, make her the ideal person to provide the guidance we need to continue to pursue an all-of-the-above energy approach that serves all New Yorkers.”
