Anaergia Technologies has secured a change order to provide more engineering services and supply of equipment as part of an ongoing project with the East County Advanced Water Purification (AWP) Joint Powers Authority (JPA) located in East San Diego County, in California, US.
This builds on the contract that was disclosed in July 2023.
The water supply project is now under construction in Santee, California, and this facility is expected to commence operations before the end of 2026.
This change order is expected to increase Anaergia's revenues from the project by C$8.6 million.
The scope of work includes the procurement of long-lead time components including a gas treatment system, combined heat and power systems (CHP), and the required electrical equipment.
The gas treatment system will cleanse the biogas generated by the anaerobic digesters, which will then be utilised to power the CHPs.
This power will be used by the JPA to operate the water purification plant.
These key equipment procurements are crucial for the planned design-build project.
"This development is an important step as we pursue our goal of providing a new source of high-quality water, while reducing operating costs by generating energy on-site which ultimately benefits the JPA's ratepayers," said Mark Niemiec, director of the East County AWP JPA.
"This early work package will help us accomplish this mission in the most cost-effective manner possible."
"This change order with the JPA leverages Anaergia's suite of integrated solutions," said Assaf Onn, CEO of Anaergia. "It exemplifies how we work with customers to pursue our mission of accelerating the world's clean energy transition by transforming waste into valued resources."
