What Abundia Global Impact Group does
Abundia Global Impact Group, Inc. (NYSE American: AGIG) is a Houston-based, publicly traded low-carbon energy company that develops commercial-scale facilities to convert waste plastics and certified biomass into drop-in renewable fuels and low-carbon chemical feedstocks. The company was formed in December 2025 through the rebranding of Houston American Energy Corp. following its July 2025 acquisition of Abundia Global Impact Group LLC, marking a strategic pivot from upstream oil and gas exploration into waste-to-value infrastructure.
The company's technology platform combines three licensed process pathways: Alterra Energy's continuous, commercial-scale plastics pyrolysis (catalyst-free reactor designed for standard industrial equipment); BTG Bioliquids' fast-pyrolysis technology for converting certified biomass into renewable bio-oil; and Topsoe's HydroFlex hydroprocessing technology for upgrading pyrolysis intermediates into specification-grade renewable diesel, sustainable aviation fuel, and low-carbon wax oils and chemical feedstocks. These are deployed through a modular multi-plant template anchored by the 25-acre Cedar Port Renewable Energy Complex in Baytown, Texas, which sits adjacent to the Houston Ship Channel with barge, rail, pipeline, and heavy-haul access. Each planned facility is sized for approximately 1,500 barrels per day and roughly 160,000 tons per year of waste plastic conversion, with management projecting over $200 million of potential annual revenue per site at full capacity. Project license rights cover four sites in Europe/UK and three sites in the United States.
Commercially, AGIG is pre-revenue on its core fuels and chemicals business, with first Cedar Port commercial production targeted for 2029. The April 2026 acquisition of RPD Technologies Americas added approximately 20 employees, chemical engineering scale-up capabilities, and a project development services revenue stream recognized beginning in Q2 2026. Customer offtake is expected through direct enterprise sales to Gulf Coast refineries, transportation fuel producers, and chemical manufacturers, while a 10-year binding feedstock agreement with Frankfort Plastics supplies roughly 50% of the first Cedar Port plant's needs. The company is led by CEO Ed Gillespie and CFO Lucie Harwood and faces a going-concern qualification in its FY2025 financial statements alongside a roughly 89% decline in share price from its 52-week high.

Abundia Global Impact Group product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Abundia Global Impact Group is a publicly traded low-carbon energy company developing commercial-scale waste-to-fuel facilities that transform waste plastics and certified biomass into drop-in renewable fuels and low-carbon chemical feedstocks. Its flagship 25-acre Cedar Port Renewable Energy Complex in Baytown, Texas integrates licensed pyrolysis technologies (Alterra for plastics, BTG Bioliquids for biomass) with Topsoe's HydroFlex upgrading platform and the company's internal hydroprocessing capabilities to produce renewable diesel, sustainable aviation fuel, low-carbon wax oils, and chemical feedstocks compatible with existing refining infrastructure.
Product overview
Abundia Global Impact Group operates as a unified low-carbon energy platform centered on its Cedar Port Renewable Energy Complex. The platform combines licensed pyrolysis technologies (Alterra for plastics, BTG Bioliquids for biomass) with Topsoe's HydroFlex upgrading technology to convert waste plastics and certified biomass into renewable fuels and chemical feedstocks. The Cedar Port facility serves as the anchor for a modular, multi-plant development strategy, progressing through phases: Phase 1 established the Innovation Center and R&D Facility, Phase 2 deploys plastics pyrolysis with upgrading, and future Phase 3 will incorporate biomass fast-pyrolysis for SAF. The company also operates RPD Technologies as a wholly owned subsidiary providing chemical engineering project development services.
