Generate Upcycle

We are thrilled to announce that the National Waste & Recycling Association has awarded our Cayuga Anaerobic Digester & Biogas Plant the 2025 Organics Management Facility of the Year! 🎉 In September, we celebrated the completion of three years of construction and an approximately $30 million investment to revive and upgrade the plant’s operations, which have more than doubled its capacity to process waste and generate renewable energy.🌱 This enables the Auburn, NY, plant to produce 195,000 MMBtu of RNG annually—the equivalent of heating over 3,500 homes for a year from food waste. Read all about it here: https://lnkd.in/e9sPvC6Z Special thanks to the Cayuga and Upcycle Team! All their dedicated efforts have elevated the site, earning it this well-deserved recognition and achievement. #RenewableEnergy #Biogas #AnaerobicDigestion #Sustainability

🌍 It’s World Food Day — which celebrates the founding of the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and to raises awareness of global food insecurity and malnutrition. According to the FAO, 1.3 billion tons of food are wasted every year. When food ends up in landfills, it emits methane — a potent greenhouse gas that drives climate change and disrupts agricultural productivity. At Generate Upcycle, we support organizations that connect surplus food with communities in need. When it can't be used, our anaerobic digesters capture methane and convert it into renewable energy and organic soil amendments, closing the loop in the circular economy. 💡 This World Food Day, you can help reduce food waste and fight hunger: 👉 Minimize food waste at home 👉 Support local farms in your community 👉 Advocate for food waste recycling in your community 👉 Find and donate to your local food bank: https://lnkd.in/dQnBbKu #WorldFoodDay #CircularEconomy #WeDontWaste #Sustainability #ClimateAction

A lot of companies claim to be sustainable — but how many can show it? At Generate Upcycle, we provide our customers with third-party verified monthly sustainability reports that quantify their impact. Every month, they can see: 🌎 How much waste they diverted from landfills 💨 How many tons of greenhouse gas emissions were prevented ⚡ How much renewable energy and organic fertilizer they produced Because real sustainability isn’t just a promise — it’s measurable progress. #Impact #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #CleanPower #PutYourWastetoWork

🍁 Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian customers and team members! We’re grateful for your partnership and all that you do. Wishing you a wonderful holiday filled with good food, great company, and well-deserved relaxation. Enjoy this time with friends and family! 🦃✨ #Thanksgiving #Canada #Gratitude

October is Circular Economy Month in Canada! 🌎♻️ We’re excited to share that Environment and Climate Change Canada has approved our application for a negative carbon intensity (CI) score! A negative CI score means we're not just producing a low carbon fuel, we're producing a carbon negative fuel. At our London, Ontario anaerobic digester and biogas facility, we turn food waste into renewable natural gas (RNG) by capturing methane (a climate super pollutant) that would otherwise escape into the atmosphere and convert it into clean, carbon negative energy. This process not only keeps food waste out of landfills but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, helping Canada move closer to net-zero by 2050. We’re proud to demonstrate how circular solutions can drive real climate impact — turning waste into energy, and emissions into opportunity. 🌱⚡ Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gPNnuJ_z #CircularEconomyMonth #CleanEnergy #CarbonNegative #RNG #NetZero2050 #Sustainability

Thanks for the great write up Nora Goldstein!

Got food waste? We’re open for business in Buffalo, NY! We’re excited to share that our Buffalo digester has been successfully injecting renewable natural gas (RNG) into the natural gas pipeline for over a month. 💡 The facility is capable of producing up to 95,000 gigajoules of RNG per year—enough clean energy to power 6,600 electric vehicles annually. By turning food waste into energy, we’re not only fueling a greener future, but also providing more competitive rates for food waste disposal to our customers. 👉 Need a quote?

This week, our team attended the RNG COALITION's annual RNG WORKS technical workshop in Nashville, TN, where Floriano Ferreira, our vice president of engineering and business development (pictured on the right), participated in a panel on the Challenges & Opportunities with Co-digestion of Feedstocks. What a great opportunity to exchange knowledge and expertise! #RNGWorkshop #RenewableNaturalGas #Biogas #EnergyTransition

It was an honor to host Seamus Logan MP this week at our Buchan AD site in Peterhead, Scotland. The Scottish Government has set an ambitious target of reaching net zero by 2045—and sites like Buchan are already playing a vital role in delivering that vision. ⚡ Up to 0.5 MW of clean electricity delivered to the grid 🔥 620 CM/h of biomethane injected into the gas network serving Aberdeenshire North and Moray East 🏠 Powering 1,622 homes with renewable electricity 🏡 Heating 5,101 homes with locally produced biomethane We’re proud to support the transition to a low-carbon future—helping Scotland lead the way in renewable energy innovation and resilience.
