Company Overview

Anaergia Inc.

Johnston, RI, United States

2007

Approximately 1,600 employees globally (source: cbinsights.com). Revenue figures for 2023 or later are not disclosed.

What They Do

Anaergia specializes in advanced anaerobic digestion technologies that convert organic waste into renewable resources. Their core technology focuses on transforming various organic waste streams, including municipal solid waste (MSW), wastewater, agricultural manure, and food processing residuals, into renewable natural gas (RNG), clean water, and fertilizer. The company utilizes proprietary systems such as the OmnivoreTM high-solids digester, which significantly increases biogas yield, and the Organics Extrusion Press (OREXTM) for efficient separation of wet organics from dry fractions (source: anaergia.com). Anaergia's offerings include equipment packages, operations and maintenance services, and various project delivery models like build-own-operate (BOO) and public-private partnerships (PPP), enabling clients to integrate anaerobic digestion into existing facilities or develop new plants that can turn wastewater treatment into net energy producers (source: biogasworld.com). Their target markets encompass municipal wastewater and MSW sectors, agriculture for manure processing, and food processing industries, all aimed at reducing costs, emissions, and generating revenue from waste (source: anaergia.com). With over 300 patents and a presence in 17 countries, Anaergia positions itself as a leader in scalable, carbon-negative RNG solutions, offering lower lifecycle costs compared to competitors (source: cbinsights.com).

Projects & Track Record

The Rialto Bioenergy Facility in Rialto, California, is one of Anaergia's flagship projects, processing up to 300,000 tons of landfill-diverted waste and biosolids annually. This facility utilizes Anaergia's anaerobic digestion technology to produce approximately 985,000 MMBTU/year of RNG, equivalent to 13 megawatts of clean energy, while also generating Class A fertilizer and renewable electricity. The facility significantly reduces CO2 emissions by 220,000 metric tons per year and injects RNG into SoCalGas pipelines (source: socalgas.com). Additionally, Anaergia operates over 1,600 sites globally, including a biogas plant repowering project in Germany that processes various types of organic waste to enhance combined heat and power (CHP) outputs (source: biogasworld.com). The company is also engaged in ongoing projects, including a C$43.8 million contract for a California biogas renewable power facility and a contract with PepsiCo Mexico Foods to process 50,000 tons/year of organics into biomethane by the end of 2026 (source: biomassmagazine.com). Their client roster includes major players like SoCalGas, Waste Management, and Southern California Edison, showcasing their extensive reach across North America and Europe (source: businesswire.com).

Recent Developments

In recent years, Anaergia has secured significant contracts, including a C$43.8 million agreement to deliver a renewable power facility for a California biogas project, which is set to leverage advanced anaerobic digestion and combined heat and power technologies (source: biomassmagazine.com). Additionally, on December 9, 2025, Anaergia Technologies signed a contract with PepsiCo Mexico Foods to implement high-efficiency digestion and biogas upgrading at a facility in Mexico, which will process 50,000 tons/year of organics into biomethane, significantly reducing CO2 emissions (source: businesswire.com). Furthermore, in May 2025, the company announced a contract with Capwatt for the first of nine new biogas plants in Italy, indicating ongoing expansion and commitment to renewable energy solutions (source: cbinsights.com). While no major acquisitions or funding rounds have been reported post-2023, Anaergia continues to highlight its extensive portfolio of reference facilities and patents, reinforcing its position in the market (source: anaergia.com).

Working There

Anaergia offers a diverse range of roles across various departments, including engineering, construction/project management, operations and maintenance, manufacturing, and research and development. The company is actively hiring at key locations, including its headquarters in Burlington, Ontario, and U.S. sites in California and Johnston, RI, which serve as significant bases for their operations (source: cbinsights.com). The culture at Anaergia emphasizes innovation and collaboration, supported by a robust portfolio of over 300 patents and a commitment to sustainability through replicable projects across 17 countries (source: businesswire.com). While specific employee benefits are not extensively documented, the company's growth phase and multimillion-dollar contracts suggest competitive compensation for technical roles, fostering a dynamic work environment focused on resource recovery and cost reduction (source: anaergia.com).

Job Description

The candidate will be part of the EICA (Electrical, Instrumentation, Control, Automation) team, with a focus on the electrical aspect.

The design of the electrical system (cable sizing and grounding) and the auxiliary systems (lighting, outlets, smoke detection, etc.) is assigned to external engineering firms with whom we collaborate. The design of the electrical panels is entrusted to the panel suppliers themselves.

Therefore, this role is primarily one of coordination and will be responsible for:

  • Collecting information from colleagues and suppliers regarding the plant layout and the power supply of the equipment to be powered
  • Organizing this information into dedicated lists (Electrical Load List)
  • Preparing requests for quotation and providing suppliers with the necessary information for detailed engineering, electrical panels, and electrical installations
  • Supervising the work of the suppliers and sharing relevant information with colleagues from other disciplines
  • Conducting tests and inspections on the supplies under their responsibility

Technical skills

Required: The candidate must possess the skills necessary to critically evaluate the work of suppliers, particularly the ability to read low-voltage electrical diagrams and have basic electrical engineering knowledge (induction motors, short-circuit currents, grounding regulations, electrical installations in ATEX environments, etc.).
Preferred: Experience with medium-voltage systems.
Provided by Anaergia: Specific knowledge related to our biogas plants and the standards we use.

Software skills

Required: We work with interconnected Excel lists and Cadmatic (a software similar to AutoCAD) through queries, so excellent knowledge of the Office suite and general IT skills are required.
Preferred: 2D AutoCAD.
Provided by Anaergia: Specific training on company tools.

Soft skills

Required: The candidate must be able to learn and apply company standards regarding electrical design and engineering document management.
Preferred: Precision, communication skills, autonomy.

At the moment, we are focusing on plants for which we only supply low-voltage panels that power our equipment. As a result, skills related to electrical installations and auxiliary systems are secondary to those related to list management, panel design, and internal coordination. However, in the future, we may return to providing full-scope supply.

In addition to the above, we are open to considering other profiles that could also handle the detailed design of the electrical and auxiliary systems, provided they are registered with the relevant professional board and meet the requirements for project certification.
