What BTS biogas does

BTS Biogas Srl is an Italian engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) firm specializing in anaerobic digestion plants that convert agricultural waste, agro-industrial byproducts, and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (FORSU) into biogas and biomethane. Founded in 1998 and headquartered in Affi (Verona), Italy, the company operates across four markets (Italy, France, the UK, and the United States) and positions itself on more than 25 years of process know-how, an in-house biological laboratory, proprietary biological recipes, plant automation systems, and one international patent.

The firm's product portfolio is organized around three core plant categories — agricultural, agro-industrial, and FORSU — and a service ecosystem that includes Assistance 360 (24/7 biological, technical, and automation support), laboratory and biological consulting, a warehouse and logistics center, plant revamping/upgrades, and a biomethane investment vehicle for greenfield projects and conversions of existing biogas plants. The business model combines one-time EPC license-style revenue on plant construction with recurring service revenue from long-tail operational support and biological consulting across the installed base.

BTS Biogas sells primarily through a direct enterprise field-sales motion targeting agricultural operators, agro-industrial companies, and municipal waste handlers, with a strategic partnership with Bioenergy Devco providing a channel into integrated anaerobic digestion projects. Pricing is project-specific and quote-based, and the company holds UNI EN ISO 9001:2015, 14001:2015, and 45001:2023 certifications. Revenue, ownership structure, and cap-table details are not disclosed in the available data, and no public funding or M&A history has been recorded.
