Developing next generation biomass fuels using sustainable resources

What we do
AEG is a biomass based renewable energy business focussed on using its proprietary technology to transform low-cost or waste biomass material into renewable biomass fuels, thus creating next generation biomass products.
HOW WE’RE DRIVING THE JOURNEY TO NET ZERO

Introduction about AEG 

CoalSwitch® utilises waste materials from lumber operations to create a superior energy efficient product that is a direct drop-in replacement for coal or white biomass pellets. AEG is also investing in research development to develop additional biomass fuels utilising waste timber or next generation crops which can either be used as a primary feedstock or used to co-fire with coal.

Our commitment

AEG is committed to helping customers achieve their sustainability goals through the production of next generation carbon-neutral fuels.

Experienced Leadership Team

AEG is lead by an experienced board of directors based in the UK and North America, with Executive Team based between London and the US.

Sustainable fuels from forestry waste

01

FORESTRY

We focus on low value waste residuals such as bark sawdust and low value wood

02

PROCESS

The plant takes the waste product and produces CoalSwitch® biomass pellets

03

ENERGY

The power created by using CoalSwitch® pellets replaces energy previously produced through burning fossil fuels

OPERATIONS

We are focused on developed scaled production plants in North America.

First production of CoalSwitch® will be delivered from the Ashland Facility in Ashland, Maine.
