Pioneering Biogas Digitalization from New Brunswick

By Anessa

Canada is on a mission to embrace cleaner energy, and biogas is emerging as a game-changer in the sustainability movement. Getting a biogas project up and running is challenging.

Developers must deal with complex planning, unexpected issues, and the ongoing task of keeping operations efficient even after the project is built. Sticking to outdated methods only makes things more challenging.

That’s where Anessa, an award-winning company from New Brunswick, comes in. By harnessing the power of AI and digitalization, Anessa is transforming the way biogas projects are developed and managed—making them data-driven, more profitable, and scalable.

Smarter Decisions, Stronger Projects

Anessa’s AI-driven software does two critical things:

– Minimizes risks before a project even begins.

– Optimizes operations once it’s up and running.

Anessa AD•A our cutting-edge assessment tool, acts like a crystal ball for anaerobic digestion projects. It predicts financial outcomes, pinpoints the best feedstock mixes, and identifies risks long before construction starts.

Once the project becomes operational, Anessa ADO and Anessa ADM will take over, monitoring real-time data to assist plant operators in identifying problems early, making prompt adjustments, and remaining compliant with evolving regulations.

Consider it like having a digital twin of your biogas facility—a virtual model that enables you to test and refine your strategy before making real-world decisions.

Turning Organic Waste Into Opportunity

One of Anessa’s greatest strengths? Flexibility. Markets shift, policies change, and uncertainty is a constant. But with AI-powered insights, energy companies, farmers, and industrial operators no longer have to guess their way through biogas production.

They can rely on data to turn organic waste into energy more efficiently, maximizing both environmental and financial benefits.

Anessa’s technology has supported clients in over 14 countries, modelled and optimized over 27 million GJ of RNG, and evaluated over 2.4 million tonnes of GHG emission reduction.

A Community-Driven Success Story

Anessa’s impact goes beyond technology — it’s about empowering communities.

With deep roots in New Brunswick, we actively collaborate with local farmers, industry partners, policymakers, and community stakeholders, educating them on the value of biogas and RNG.

Many overlook how accessible resources can be repurposed for high-value uses like energy and fertilizer, often considering them waste. Through hands-on consultations and educational sessions, we help farmers and energy companies embrace sustainable practices that boost their operations while contributing to regional renewable energy goals.

By fostering partnerships between the stakeholders, Anessa is driving biogas innovation and shaping a more sustainable and self-reliant future for Canada.
