BIOGAS PRODUCTION BUSINESS PLAN

 



I. Executive Summary


Company Description

HarvestCycle Energy is a U.S.-based waste-to-value enterprise launching operations in 2026. We operate in the renewable energy and sustainable agriculture sectors using anaerobic digestion to convert organic waste from farms and municipalities into pipeline-quality renewable natural gas (RNG) and nutrient-dense biofertilizer. Our core activities are long-term feedstock contracting, centralized digestion and gas-upgrading at a state-of-the-art facility, on-site nutrient recovery, and commercial RNG injection and fertilizer distribution. We target regional dairy and livestock farms, municipal solid waste programs, and mid-sized utilities seeking low-carbon gas. Our one-liner: We turn organic waste into reliable energy and soil-ready nutrients.

What sets us apart is an integrated circular-economy design that maximizes methane capture and nutrient recovery, coupled with long-term feedstock agreements and direct offtake pathways for RNG and biofertilizer. Short-term goals are to complete commissioning, secure five multi-year feedstock contracts, and achieve steady-state commercial RNG deliveries in year one post-launch. Long-term goals are to scale by adding modular digestion trains at three regional sites, reduce lifecycle GHG emissions for partners, and become a financially stable regional supplier of low-carbon gas and fertilizer. Our strategy emphasizes stable cash flows, measurable environmental impact, and repeatable site replication.

 

Problem

Municipalities, farms, and food processors face rising disposal costs, landfill scarcity, growing greenhouse-gas emissions from organic waste, energy price volatility, and declining soil health.

The market lacks a widespread, localized solution that links organic-waste diversion to on-site renewable energy and soil amendments; current disposal and fertilizer practices are costly and environmentally harmful.

We address this gap by deploying U.S.-based anaerobic digestion facilities (launching 2026) that convert organic waste into pipeline-quality renewable natural gas and biofertilizer, reducing disposal costs, GHG risk, energy dependence, and soil degradation.

 

Solution

American communities face overflowing landfills, rising methane emissions, volatile fossil fuel dependence, and declining soil health; our project turns that liability into value by converting organic waste into usable products and reliable waste services. In short: we transform organic waste into marketable energy and soil inputs while cutting emissions.

We produce pipeline-quality renewable natural gas (RNG) and supply nutrient-rich biofertilizer, accept feedstock from local farms and municipal programs to ensure steady input, reduce methane emissions that would otherwise escape, and serve energy and agricultural markets with low-carbon fuel and reusable soil product.

 

Mission Statement

Our mission is to lead the transition to a circular economy by transforming organic waste into sustainable energy and agricultural resources, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and restoring soil health. We commit to enhancing local energy independence through proven, innovative technology and to proving that waste is a valuable asset. We create measurable value for partners, investors, and the environment and set the standard for waste-to-value operations in the United States.

 

Key Success Factors

Our success rests on resilient revenues, reliable feedstock, experienced leadership, high-value environmental credits, and secured offtake partnerships.

  • Dual-revenue model — biogas sales plus value from renewable natural gas and electricity provide revenue resilience.
  • Strategic feedstock location — facility sited in a high-feedstock area ensures consistent, low-cost organic supply.
  • Experienced management — team with proven bioenergy operations and regulatory compliance expertise.
  • High-value environmental credits — generation of RINs and LCFS credits materially improves project margins.
  • Secured offtake partnerships — long-term contracts with utilities and agricultural cooperatives stabilize revenue and volume.
