Blue Planet Environmental Solutions Pte. Ltd. (Blue Planet), a Singapore headquartered company driving regional sustainability through technology-driven and IP-based end-to-end solutions for waste management and upcycling, announced their third acquisition in the biogas sector.
These milestones follow Blue Planet’s recent investment into Qube Renewables Ltd. (Qube), a U.K. registered company with a successful track record in the design, build and deployment of small-scale energy generating systems powered by eco-friendly biogas. These systems are particularly valuable in rural areas or developing countries where there are inadequate or unreliable centrally generated energy supplies be it power, heat, cooling or vehicle fuel, the company said in its release.
Whilst Qube represents Blue Planet’s third acquisition in the U.K., it is also their third acquisition in the AD sector which focuses on the conversion of organic waste materials into energy in an efficient and highly sustainable manner.
The technologies pioneered by Qube will now enable Blue Planet to provide additional climate-friendly solutions to process all types of wet or dry organic waste into renewable energy, wherever those might arise. In addition to the technological synergies created, the cross-pollination of professional and technological wisdom between the three separate AD entities in Blue Planet’s portfolio further equips them to create and deploy highly innovative projects all over the world including developing countries, small isolated rural or small maritime communities and islands.
Madhujeet Chimni, Founder and Chairman, Blue Planet said that, “We are extremely excited about Qube joining the Blue Planet family. This strategic acquisition not only plays a key role in improving the efficiency of our existing anaerobic waste digestion and biogas production plants, but also extends our ability to deploy climate friendly energy solutions into new, previously untapped markets. Sustainability and innovation have always been the key drivers of our business and Qube is a prime example of how we continue to assimilate these core principles into our projects and operations locally, regionally and globally.”
Bradley Chew, Director, Blue Planet added that, “The acquisition of Qube completes our suite of technologies for the treatment of organic wastes; our customers can now select from a choice of three distinct technological approaches but with all three having the production of environmentally friendly biogas from anaerobic digestion at their core. Furthermore, with this acquisition, we have considerably strengthened our capability to take on a broad spectrum of projects, large and small. It will also enable us to generate higher yields of biogas recovery from our other AD technologies and thereby deliver even greater value to our customers.”
The team at Qube has over 30 years of experience in waste management, and has successfully created and deployed solutions for over 25 clients across 9 countries.
Mark Clayton, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Qube said that, “We are delighted to become part of the Blue Planet family of much needed technologies to address urgent social, environmental and climate concerns. Blue Planet’s investment enables Qube to increase production of our systems, gain a wider global reach and to provide extensive client support. The investment also enables Qube to be at the forefront of innovation in the biogas sector in both technology and application to provide not only energy but the synthesis of raw materials for sustainable industry.”
