The race to decarbonize America’s energy system is accelerating, and Waga Energy has just taken a pivotal step forward. With the company securing $180 million in fresh financing from Crédit Agricole and HSBC, its renewable natural gas (RNG) footprint in the United States is set for substantial expansion. As landfill emissions continue to challenge climate goals, this investment signals a strong vote of confidence in advanced RNG technologies that turn waste into low-carbon energy. Here’s a closer look at how this milestone is shaping the future of sustainable gas production in the US.

Waga Energy’s $180 million financing package is structured as a 4-year senior debt facility under a warehouse arrangement, offering the company flexible capital to fast-track project execution. Supported by Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank and HSBC Asset Management, the facility underscores growing institutional enthusiasm for RNG as a scalable decarbonization tool. With long-term market demand rising across utilities, transportation, and industrial sectors, this financing equips Waga Energy to continue delivering high-impact methane-reduction solutions across the US.

The proceeds from this financing will drive the construction and commissioning of multiple landfill-to-RNG projects, strengthening the company’s presence within the expanding American RNG market. Waga Energy’s proprietary Wagabox technology transforms landfill gas into pipeline-ready RNG—a crucial innovation for reducing methane, one of the most potent greenhouse gases. With 32 operational units already running across France, Spain, Canada, and the US, and another 18 under construction, the company is solidifying its role as a global leader in renewable gas upgrading. In the US alone, Waga Energy has secured 13 gas rights agreements, including two operational Wagabox units and eleven more in the pipeline, positioning the firm for accelerated nationwide growth.

Beyond infrastructure expansion, the real impact lies in emissions reduction. Landfill methane accounts for a significant portion of U.S. greenhouse gases, and RNG recovery offers one of the most direct pathways to mitigate these emissions while supplying low-carbon energy to the grid. Each new Waga Energy project not only curbs methane release but also supports federal and state energy transition targets by providing renewable fuel for utilities and transportation fleets. As demand for clean molecules grows, Waga Energy’s platform is poised to play a central role in shaping the country’s sustainable gas landscape.

Waga Energy’s latest financing milestone reinforces how innovation, capital, and climate policy are converging to redefine the future of U.S. renewable gas.
