March 31, 2024. Vanguard Renewables®, a farm-based provider of organic material solutions for the food and beverage industry, is celebrating a decade in clean energy innovation and organic materials solutions. The Company has grown from two facilities under management in 2014 to 32 sites across the United States, with new projects commencing construction consistently over the next four years. Vanguard’s vision is to transform organic food and beverage materials into a force for good – decarbonizing the world, supporting regenerative agriculture, and powering the lives of all those that live on the planet.
Vanguard celebrates this 10-year milestone with an accelerated workforce and facility expansion. As part of its aggressive growth strategy, Vanguard Renewables is developing multiple Farm Powered® digesters across the country that will service almost every major metropolitan market. The Company currently operates multiple organics to renewable energy projects in eight states, is constructing sites in four states, has more than 10 projects slated for construction in 2024, and an additional 68 projects in various stages of planning development, and aims to have more than 100 completed projects by the end of 2028.
Currently the Company is operating facilities in Texas, Idaho, Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, and Vermont. In 2024, they will add sites in these states and begin construction on several facilities in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas, and Oklahoma.
In addition to Vanguard Renewables facility expansion, the Company has also expanded their food and beverage materials diversion services and their organics solutions team to now provide service throughout the contiguous United States. Vanguard is leading the way on renewable natural gas (RNG) projects, providing a drop-in replacement fuel for fossil natural gas and is making a significant impact on the renewable energy landscape.
