Organix energy and O.CREEDS join forces for sustainable future
Organix Energy Inc., a global project developer in renewable energy, and Onushandhani Creeds Limited (O.CREEDS Ltd.), a premier Bangladeshi consultancy specialising in environmental and infrastructure projects, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to collaborate on renewable energy initiatives.
This partnership focuses on leveraging organic waste and landfill gas to produce Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) and renewable electricity, significantly advancing Bangladesh's waste management, energy security, and climate resilience.
Organix Energy, based in British Columbia, Canada, is recognised for its expertise in developing, building, owning, and operating RNG projects. Organix recently completed a preliminary study on the Amin Bazar Landfill, estimating production of 1.9 billion cubic feet (bcf) of RNG over 20 years. This production could contribute 1,807,275 MMBTU of energy, meeting local natural gas demands, decreasing LNG imports, and reducing emissions equivalent to taking 214,246 cars off Dhaka's roads.
Organix Energy's projects utilise anaerobic digestion, a globally proven and environmentally safe technology with growing traction in North America and Europe. This method generates renewable energy and produces nutrient-rich organic fertiliser, offering a safer alternative to incineration, which can emit toxic byproducts. "Selecting the right technology is critical for both environmental safety and long-term quality," emphasised Tapas Biswas, CEO of Organix Energy. "Anaerobic digestion is superior to incineration, often resulting in higher greenhouse gas emissions and hazardous byproducts. We focus on implementing safe, top-quality solutions aligning with Bangladesh's climate and sustainability goals."
O.CREEDS Ltd., headquartered in Dhaka, Bangladesh, has extensive experience in environmental consultancy and project development. It has successfully executed numerous impactful projects through its expertise in master planning, detailed design, and community engagement.
Engineer Md Shahadat Hossain, Managing Director and CEO of O.CREEDS Ltd., added, "Our joint mission is to deliver impactful waste-to-energy solutions that support cleaner cities and enhance energy access. This partnership represents a significant milestone in advancing Bangladesh's renewable energy and waste management goals."
